I knew what they were and that I wasn't suppose to touch them. My wife's dad is an ex Seal and in his house he has flint locks and black powder guns on display in easy reach. My daughters have been around them since they were born. Both of them have been exposed to them and know not to touch them ever. And in 6 years we have never had an instance that either of them have touched them. They know better. Now this dick head taught his son how to cock the hammer and pull the trigger. He needs to be put in jail. Which is where he is going for a mandatory minimum sentence of 5 years due to being a felon in possession of a fire arm.In the news paper it cited the dad for teaching his son how to cock and fire a gun and also for buying his 8 y/o son violent video games.My point is that no child should handle a gun, but if there are guns in your house they should be exposed to them and taught that they are not toys.</blockquote>
