Guns Within the Home
It is commonly stated that more Americans have guns in their homes than dogs. A gun in the house can be dangerous, especially in homes where children live. Each year almost 500 children (under age 18) are killed by guns. Many more receive severe injuries. The best way to prevent gun-related incidents is to not keep a gun in the house, but if you make the choice to do so, always use a highly-rated gun lock or a locked gun safe and keep the gun unloaded. Store ammunition separately.
Boys are more often the victims of unintentional shootings compared to girls. Most of the time, the shooter is a relative (especially a brother) or a friend. About half of the deaths occur within the victim’s home, and the rest usually at the home of a friend or relative.
