    I was just quoting the actual laws… As a concealed carry permit holder it’s a pretty important responsibility to know how/where it’s legal to store your loaded handgun.

      I hope it’s also important to know how/where to store your loaded handgun so toddlers can’t get to it.

        Rule 1: Don’t have kids.

        Rule 2: Don’t allow kids in your car or home.

        Agreed - that’s probably the easier way to charge the father in this case. Focus on child endangerment, reckless abandonment, etc. I’m just saying a gun charge probably isn’t the best path to conviction in this case.

          You’re exceptionally bad faithing this whole comment section, you that right?

            I haven’t made any arguments to “bad faith”. I just saw OP saying the father should face gun charges, and that’s a topic I know a bit about, so I thought I’d chime in with a quick fact check. I never said the father wasn’t a piece of shit or that he shouldn’t go to jail.

              Agreed - you where just trying to ram your agenda through everyone’s throat.

              (that’s you, that’s how you interact. ‘Agreeing’ with people in obvious disagreement with you, thinking that drove the point home)

      No, you weren’t, you wrote your comment completely ignoring the actual context.

      Regardless of that, carjacking and the ability for anyone to stop one, is not going to yield great results if someone is already pointing a gun at you. No one is really prepared to deal with opposing one; the best thing to do is just get out and get to safety.

          A knife or a gun is equally efficient at intimidating and damaging someone. You aren’t going to have the time or awareness to draw a gun before they stab you.
