Only in the imagination of the weak-minded.

We (NRA Instructors) use Adam Lanza as an example of the importance of following this rule, which is presented in the NRA Basic Pistol Course FIVE times - "ALL firearms and ammunition MUST be kept out of the hands of unauthorized people."

You see, during the investigation of the CT shooting, the police came across Adam Lanza's Mother's NRA Basic Pistol Certificate, in which this rule is presented five times.  His Mom KNEW that Adam Lanza was a "special needs" child who should not have free access to her guns.  In fact, she once told the baby sitter "never to turn his back on the boy - not even to go to the bathroom."  Yet she did NOT follow the NRA's own rule about access to firearms.
