Sorry if my point wasn't expressed succinctly the first time around. I'm just saying that before pictures like these are posted on the internet, we should think of how they could be used by people on the other side of the gun rights fence.
We read enough stories in the news about drunk teenagers screwing around with Dad's guns, or kids finding mom's junkie boyfrind's gun and bringing it to daycare.
When was the last time one of those stories resulted in lawmakers calling for the loosening of existing gun control laws?
Yes, the guns were cleared. Yes, the camera was remotely activated. I had assumed that to be the case. But, all that means nothing to the Jarrett Barrioses and Mumbles Meninos in the world who would use pictures like these to portray us all as a bunch of trigger-happy rednecks, in order to get tougher gun laws passed.
That is all.
