Depends. I know my boss, whom I consider a friend, had firearms locked up tight at his house. They only came out for target practice and when he travelled. I know him, and I trust that he would never have a gun out for one of his kids to reach in his house. However, I do feel better when I think there aren’t any guns around. Unless I need protection from someone. That’s the problem isn’t it? My neighbor is a cop, and I like that if there was a criminal he is across the street with a gun. But, he drinks too much, which makes me a little uneasy.
Some people I would be more nervous about, and especially if I had kids I might be uneasy if they had a play date at that house.
A friend of mine. Who is a gun owner, said she taught her kids from the age of nothing that if they see a gun they run the other way and tell mommy they saw it. I think even guns on display in a house were red flags to her concerning her school aged children. You never know what kids will do out of curiosity.
