Oregon lawmakers are considering a bill that would make it a crime for adults to allow minors unsupervised access to firearms.

I sent this out to the Democrats who are running the state:


Real world statistics show SB945 is a solution in search of a problem when one looks at the leading cause of deaths for minor children under18 years of age: motor vehicles (34%), suffocation (27%), drowning (17%), fires (7%), environmental factors (2.3%), poisoning (2.2%), falls (1.5%), firearm (1.5), pedal cycles (1.4%), and medical mistakes (1.3%).

These real world statistics put firearm accident death rates at 0.2 per 100,000 population which is an all time historical low in the United States. Since 1930, the annual number of firearm accident deaths has decreased 81%, while the U.S. population has more than doubled and the number of firearms has quintupled. Among minor children, such deaths have decreased 89% since 1975.

Statically speaking the odds are more than a million to one, against a child in the U.S. dying in a firearm related accident.

If Democrats in the Oregon Legislature were truly concerned about child safety gun owners would not be their target. Unfortunately, SB945 is a Democrat political gun agenda item not about child safety.

We don't need facts and logic! It's for the children! Why do you want children to die?!?!?!

Obviously they should be having school taught anal sex instead of hunting in the outdoors.

Are they suggesting that minors don't have a right to self-defense in the home? Wouldn't that violate Heller?

People under the age of 18 can be home without parental supervision, and there are plenty of places in this state where police response times would allow a child to be robbed/raped/murdered before a cop showed up.

The Democrats obviously hate children.
