Guns in the Home

http://www.bradycampaign.org/facts/gunviolence/gunsinthehome


This article is from the Brady Campaign, talking about the dangers of being allowed to hold firearms and store them in your home. He argues that "stronger, sensible gun laws" need to be enforced because of the many dangers presented using statistics that tell why gun control is so important and necessary. Some of the statistics say things like, "A gun in the home is more likely to result in suicide or homicide" "More than 40% of households with children store their firearm unlocked", and "Between 6% and 14% of firearm owning households with a child under 18 have an unlocked and loaded firearm".
