And now for something completely different. We should be lobbying for tax free purchases on all gun safety and storage equipment. Free trigger locks with every fire arms purchase.

If the current government is willing to fund safe injection sites and free needles for public safety, then it's only fair to incentivize gun safety. Drug users made a choice to get into drugs, we just made different choices. Both choices require safety to be paramount. They are talking about decriminalizing drugs yet we're facing criminalization. What kills more people?

Free Gun lockers, cleaning kits, and trigger locks should be the norm!

A guy can dream.....

Edited some spelling.

oh LOL this just made me remember something, maybe you'll like it:

I like to call my firearms equipment my "First Aid kit"

My suggestion to the community is that from here on in we dispense with the term "firearm" or "gun".

henceforth, the following terms shall be deemed acceptable:

First Aid Kit

First Aid stick

Safety stick

Safe Space stick

safe injection sites and free needles for public safety

aha, so ranges shall be described as:

Safety Projectile Sites with free safety projectiles provided in order to get plenty of practice with public, community and personal safety. Practice makes perfect

To be quite clear: the terms "bullet" "cartridge" "ammunition" have become unacceptable. Acceptable terms are:

Safety projectile

Family defense cartridge

Vitamin L

Bodily Harm Insurance

Life Conservation Units (for when your life, or your families life, needs conserving)

Safe Space cartridges (everyone needs a safe space these days, this term should be especially popular with the young 'uns)
