That was one of the questions before iowa lawmakers today jenna several bills were sent to the statehouse floor today. All concerning some aspect of the second ammendment. Tim Sabrina Ahmed has in the statehouse its 2nd amendment day at the statehouse so the for 5 bills on the regarding regarding access to firearms to state of emergency, one dealing atvs, another deals with confidentiality, 5th and most contentious involves kids 14 and under able to use guns, created large and long debate on house floor logically does it make sense for a 1 year old to hold and shoot a handgun yes or no . Even people who are experienced with firearms harem themseves accidentally, so the thought that a 15 year old even under supervision should be firing a handgun is ludicrous. This is the best bill expanding 2nd amendment rights, puts rights back in hands of parents. Any criticism parents rights, thats all very well and good if every parent is Beaver Cleaver the perfect parent
