January 23, 2009, 6:08pm (report abuse)I educate my family on proper gun control. Guns don't kill people, idiots that don't teach their kids the difference between right and wrong, put the guns in the hands of uneducated kids that kill little Jimmys and little Johnnys. Teach you youth the respect that weapons deserve. Quit trying to spend more money that can be better spent on things that matter. Quit trying to tell me how to protect my family. Educate yourself on proper gun control.

March 16, 2009, 2:12am (report abuse)So explain to me this:
Sec. 5, 2 (A)keeps a loaded firearm, or an unloaded firearm and ammunition for the firearm,
Now please explain how the "child" could perform an act of self-defense if it is illegal to have a loaded firearm, or an unloaded firearm and ammunition for the firearm as stated in paragraph 3 (C)the child uses the firearm in a lawful act of self-defense or defense of 1 or more other persons.
Who determines what is a "lawful act"??
