Two words that don't go together "Honest Politician".......Of course this crap is fabricated, who has received an honest poll of when and where you locked your firearm...???
I've never been asked, I don't call in and "REPORT" securing or locking up my firearms...
A non-political class that teaches :
Firearm safety...
How a firearm operates...
Basic Firearm ID...
Basic ballistics...
Yep ... I can get behind that idea.
Tax breaks on gun safe sales and or free trigger locks , etc...yep again good idea.
Making a law / telling someone that this is how you need to store and secure your firearms in your own home...Nope.
Just how I store and secure my firearms in my home , works for me in my home...it may not work in someone else's...
This is a one size fits none solution...that like the universal BGC , will create more criminals.
As for the notion that firearms are a "health risk"...
Getting outside , learning the skills of safe gun use , researching the history of my guns , interacting with others , sharing ideas, etc...yeah these are all bad for ya...

I think if they just added a section to the law that required anyone breaking into your house to give you time to get your firearms out of the safe it would be OK?
An incomplete list of other good ideas lawmakers should adopt:
1. Requirement that a signed waiver to be completed and notarized prior to friends, family or neighbors being granted access to a property where firearms have existed within the prior 30 days. Forms should be filed and maintained at the local sherriff's office after access is granted.
2. Perimeter markings around any known firearm storage location to alert of the possibility of weapon accidental discharge.
3. Establish a 1-800 number and website where firearm movement within a residence shall be requested and reported. To be included in the movement request is the intended use of said firearm such as target shooting, cleaning, personal defense or general fondling/admiration.
4. Allow "on demand" access to personally owned firearms by others who may not have sufficient funds for personal firearm ownership or feel uncomfortable maintaining firearms at their own residence.
5. Provide government funding for safe firearm storage within 100 yards of any known homeless dwelling. These safe storage areas shall be staffed to provide 24 hour access for the local homeless person.
I'm sure we can all agree that laws such as these will keep all citizens and non-citizens alike much safer.
