The source of responsible firearm ownership is education and social interaction. Educating new and old owners leads to a higher safety attitude and organizing those owners in community interaction and competition creates a healthy environment to express a passion or talent. There are too many that tie purchasing a firearm with activities like movies and video games. But we do not need to remove that influence. Perhaps we could route that tendacy through a more productive path such competitive shooting or classes.
If we are going to ban or limit sales of firearms we should avoid the terms military style or assault rifle style. That is exactly what they mean, they resemble military weapons. Dangerous weapons should be rated and limited by there level of danger, not how they look.
