"Ronzino said he heard a shot last night and went outside with his gun to check," said Kevin Doll, a sheriff's office spokesman. "He didn't see anything, came back in and put the gun on the bed stand."

3. I agree with the guy from the 2nd amendment club

If it was up to John DiGaetano, president of the Second Amendment Club in Pasco County, people who don't know better than to leave a loaded gun on a nightstand would not be gun owners. The Second Amendment Club offers handgun safety courses several times a year.

Friday's incident made DiGaetano angry. He said the safest way to store firearms around children is to keep them in a safe box with a combination lock.

"Any person who has a handgun should be responsible, know how to use it and store it," he said. "Too many people have no knowledge. They aren't interested in firearm safety. They want to have a gun and just put it on their nightstand or in a purse, or something. Some people say they don't need a class because they have a concealed carry permit. "So many people out there think they know what they're doing, and they don't."

DiGaetano said there about 15,000 people are permitted to carry a concealed firearm in Pasco. He said he believes most of them have never taken a gun safety course.

According to sheriff's office records, Ronzino reported on Jan. 4 that a 9 mm handgun was stolen from his car while it sat in the driveway of the house on Freestone.

Idiots like this shouldn't be allowed to have a gun. Hope they prosecute them. If you have kids you have a responsibilty to make sure weapons are secured. Takes a couple of seconds to put them back in a locked container.

4. What a fuckin idiot

But if your trying to brand guns as bad your way off, it's idiots with no common sense that are bad

5. I own guns

I don't have a problem with my ownership of guns.
But I greatly object to idiots with no common sense or hair-triggers owning guns.

6. How about my ownership?

I do not have a hair trigger, nor a short fuse, and I'm responsible.

7. I don't know you

for all I know you could be an idiot who walks around threatening violence to your wife or girlfriend or coworkers.

8. I was initially commenting on your choice of words...

"my" ownership of guns. That you stated two posts ago. I was just wonderng if you were of the thought process that it would indeed be ok for you to own firearms, however everyone else should be suspect.

Just your choice of words struck me funny. That's all.
