PREVENTABLE TRAGEDIES happen daily in the US because of irresponsible gun owners not securely storing their firearms. Somewhere in the U.S. today, a child will find a loaded gun in a home. They won’t have to look hard. It will be unlocked and stored in an easily accessible place. The child will pick up the firearm, and soon enough, it will go off exactly like it’s supposed to. The bullet will strike a friend, or a sibling, or the child who found the gun in the first place. Someone will be injured or killed. If it’s an average day in America, this scene will play out seven more times somewhere. It will repeat itself tomorrow. 

We CAN PREVENT these accidents from happening with stricter laws for gun owners on how they store them out of reach of a child by charging the neglectful gun owner when a accident occurs harming or fatally harming another person!
