>>I still believe in gun ownership, but also believe that people who aren't willing to treat the entire thing with the same level of respect, have no business owning guns. How you translate that into legal terms, I have no idea. I have actually sent letters to the NRA about those two commercials, telling them to get behind more public announcements along those lines. In my opinion, they could do much more in social media circles.

On that one, I agree. Something along the lines of an Uzi is a different story than owning a handgun or any of the more "conventional" types of firearms.
