I was interested to read the "instill a healthy respect for guns". Couldn't agree more, however as this clearly means "teach how to handle a gun" I couldn't disagree more. Having served my country for 9 years as an infanteer, should my son leave home aged 18 without this knowledge, I will feel absolutley fine.

Just as a followup to this - I just read that Canada has higher per capita gun ownership than the US.

So the problem clearly isn't gun ownership - it's a cultural thing.
