If you own a gun in New York state, and you have a rugrat under the age of 16, you now have 60 days to obtain some sort of gun lock or lock box or gun safe to keep the weapon locked up. Failure to do so is a misdemeanor offense. There are already similar local ordinances in the state. The law does NOT exempt police officers. The law also applies when non-resident visiting regrats are present.
Do you feel safer now? (Me neither.) Don't get me wrong, I think the general idea is a good one. I am just dubious about safety compelled in private homes by the government.
