Oh, and kudos to you Cerek for taking precautions with the guns for the kids sake. My brother keeps a clip in his nightstand and the unloaded gun in an oversized coat pocket in the closet even though the chances our 6 year old nephew would be unsupervised in his room is quite low. He can still get armed rather quickly if the dogs start going ape-crazy or he hears the door getting kicked-in and, ironically, Mom sleeps safer knowing that there is not a loaded handgun in the house. He locks the nightstand and the reinforced closet door ( which also houses his hunting guns) when he is not home.

One a note related to gun accidents-

One thing Moore could have really hard looked at rather than taking pot-shots at Charleton Heston and Dick Clark is the technological advances gun makers can and do take advantage of to decrease the number of accidental shootings. Highlighting some of the shortcomings and successes concerning this angle of the issue would have been time well spent IMHO.
