The story says that a county staff report says: "Requiring stored, unsupervised firearms to be secured with gun locks or in a locked container ... does not substantially burden the right or ability to use firearms for self-defense in the home." Does not "substantially" burden? During a home invasion, would the homeowner ask the invaders to please wait while he unlocks his gun locks or his locked container? I would like to know the basis for the assertions in the report. Where did the staff get their information?

Agree with Jack. The examples given in the article on keeping weapons from children are not very correct, the task of each individual parent is to protect the child from weapons. The teenager can find the key to the lock, so this does not solve the problem.
