leaving guns around children? And if the plan is to keep it bedside at night and lock it up in the morning, don't even kid yourself! It only takes ONE memory lapse for a tragedy to occur! This is why guns are nearly useless when it comes to home defense. Keeping it nearby can lead to unintended tragedies; keeping it locked up means it won't be there if it's actually needed.
