Re: Next In Line
said by bigjimc  :Welcome to Massachusetts.. If a person steals a gun from your house and uses it in the commission of a murder. The original owner of the gun (who it was stolen from) is prosecuted for involuntary manslaughter. Uhhh, not quite:
The decision in Massachusetts "follows rulings in other states holding gun owners liable for shootings that occur because they have failed to secure firearms in their homes," Vice said. "Courts in Indiana, Kansas and Montana have recently expanded liability of gun owners who fail to secure their guns."

| Under the law, securing a firearm is under when it is locked. You can have the firearm on the kitchen table and the doors and windows locked and it is technically locked up.
But the Commonwealth of Massachusetts will find a person negligent for anything. They want to be the next England and take away all firearms. |

I am a gun collector and I agree with this to an extent. I think everyone should have some sort of safe in which to lock up firearms. |
