Democratic lawmakers will again try to criminalize firearms storage that allows children to find guns and potentially hurt themselves or others. In the Missouri House, St. Louis County Rep. Stacey Newman told the News-Leader she'll be re-filing a version of her previous bill that would make it a Class D felony to knowingly leave "a readily available, loaded deadly weapon" in the presence of anybody younger than 17. To meet Newman's standard for security, gun owners would either have to put a trigger or cable lock on their weapon, remove the ammunition or put the firearm in a safe.

| Mandates before educating gun owners to how they can make gun ownership safer? Don't cry "commonsense" to me, it's primarily about harassing gun owners. |

TO REMEMBER |
| For, in principle, there is no difference between a law prohibiting the wearing of concealed arms, and a law forbidding the wearing such as are exposed; and if the former be unconstitutional, the latter must be so likewise. But it should not be forgotten, that it is not only a part of the right that is secured by the constitution; it is the right entire and complete, as it existed at the adoption of the constitution; and if any portion of that right be impaired, immaterial how small the part may be, and immaterial the order of time at which it be done, it is equally forbidden by the constitution. [Bliss vs. Commonwealth, 12 Ky. (2 Litt.) 90, at 92, and 93, 13 Am. Dec. 251 (1822) |
