    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.

      Hey, so, as she’s being charged for it, the fact is she was negligent because it wasn’t properly secured…

      So, uhh, what are you saying?
