    Not a responsible gun owner at all. Such negligence could well bring criminal charges, and should probably result in the owners ability to purchase and own firearms being rescinded - assuming that he's legal to do so now.

    In USA guns are used in 10,000 homicides and 21,000 suicides per year. Sad but true.

    I'm more concerned that there were 10,000 homicides and 22,000 suicides than I am about what was used to make those people dead.

    Possibly many people guilty of homicide and suicide would not have the resolve to use a deadly knife attack.

    119,869 more people were killed by motor vehicles in the same period. Registered cars and licensed drivers operating those vehicles.

    Now get the total homicides and deduct the 10,000 gun homocides, you may be surprised we should worry about other things more.

    Suicides, come in all flavors, pills, drugs, suicide by cop, automobiles, jumping off bridges and buildings, hanging.
