It defies common sense that stores are fined for selling toy guns to children, but someone who isn't even allowed to board an airplane in this country can purchase as many real guns he wants with no questions asked.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Unless they're a fugitive or a felon, or adjudicated mentally ill, we're not against them buying guns at all.
There is no possible justification or excuse for marketing dangerous weapons to children as if they were toys.
Clearly, we are courting tragedy by turning a blind eye to marketing gimmicks plainly intended to turn children into gun enthusiasts before they are even old enough to buy a firearm of their own.
People should not be in a position where their children have access to weapons and ammunition.
When it comes to our children, the most precious treasure God ever gives us, we protect them with a little sign that says, 'No guns allowed.'
There are some circles in America where it seems to be more socially acceptable to carry a hand-gun than a packet of cigarettes.
It seems ridiculous that you can be in one state with your driver's license and buy a firearm, and then in the next state it is totally illegal. There are real problems to that, but as soon as you bring up the subject and say 'gun control,' it sets a red flag.
I wish that there were more stringent laws to make guns sold anywhere that they're legal harder to get.
When kids my age were picking up toy cars, I used to buy toy guns.
If you are a gun manufacturer, the product you make is not subject to safety regulation by the Consumer Product Safety Commission. Toy guns are subject to safety regulation; water pistols are, but not real guns.
