Today, I swung my front door wide open and placed my Remington 30.06
right in my doorway. I left 6 shells beside it, then left it alone
and went about my business.

While I was gone, the mailman delivered my mail, the neighbor boy
across the street mowed the yard, a girl walked her dog down the
street, and quite a few cars stopped at the stop sign near the front
of our house. After about an hour, I checked on the gun. It was
still sitting there, right where I had left it. It hadn't moved
itself outside. It certainly hadn't killed anyone, even with the
numerous opportunities it had been presented to do so. In fact, it
hadn't even loaded itself. Well you can imagine my surprise, with all
the media hype about how dangerous guns are and how they kill people.
Either the media is wrong or I'm in possession of the laziest gun in
the world.

The United States is 3rd in murders throughout the World. But if you
take out Chicago, Detroit, Washington, DC and New Orleans, the United
States is 4th from the bottom for murders. These 4 Cities also have
the toughest Gun Control Laws in the United States. And all 4 are
controlled by Democrats in City Hall.

It would be absurd to draw any conclusions from this data - right?

Well, I'm off to check on my spoons. I hear they're making people
fat.

Not at all. The conclusion is that you are an ill-informed, ignorant
racist.

Have nice day.

You're not equipped to debate.
Have nice day.

I keep a scoped semi-auto 22lr loaded with subsonics by my shop door. You must have larger squirrels than I do. :-)

Are you required to have a trigger lock or other locking device that
disables it?

We do in Massachusetts. By law, all firearms must be stored in a safe
or have trigger or chamber locks installed. Ammo is supposed to be
stored elsewhere ... meaning not in the vicinity of the firearm.

My shotgun and Ruger 10/22 have locks on them. The handguns are loaded
but kept in a safe.
