    Where I live, anyone who owns a firearm is required to keep it in a locked gun safe when not in use, and there are strict rules around transporting a firearm as well.

    They cannot be left unattended in a vehicle, and they absolutely cannot, under any circumstances, be left loaded.

    The fact that Americans have loaded firearms just kicking around in their house is utterly insane.

      Are you suggesting the dog couldn’t have accessed the gun in the safe and shot through the wall? Why would you assume a gun owner is capable of being irresponsible? You must be that fake news I hear so much about.

      All my guns are unloaded and in a safe, and my ammo is in a separate safe. Some people are complete idiots though and in a country with such liberal gun policies, this is the result. I am all for sensible gun control, and I hope this dumbass never gets their hands on another one, but knowing this country she still won’t fail a background check.
