A speaker at the NRA Convention in Houston last week was advising parents to hide their guns in their children’s bedrooms.
Rob Pincus, owner of I.C.E. a full service personal defense and firearms training company, had the following advise for parents:
“If you’re worried that your kid is going to try to break into the safe that is in their bedroom with a gun in it, you have bigger problems than home defense,” Pincus said. “If you think that the kid who’s going to try to break into the safe because it’s in their room isn’t sneaking into your room to try to break into stuff, you’re naive and you have bigger problems than this. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with staging the gun where you’re most likely to barricade [yourself]. If you have to run across the house to check on the kids, there’s no reason to take them out of the bathroom and move them to some other room when the bad guy might be wandering around your house.”
The problem with this logic is that since 1979, over 116,385 children have had their lives cut tragically short by guns and that number is rising.
