It seems like the AAP is making a push not to just fill out forms but to talk to the parents about safe gun storage. Whether that's really effective (they believe it is), who knows.

Bring on the conspiracies, we need some more in this thread.
So you're saying I wrote all that stuff on the AAP website and hacked their links to put it there? You know, all the stuff about gun control that you ignored in your pedantic derailments? Here, I'll give you yet another chance. Attached is a link form one of the websites of your peoples (you know, liberals who think it takes a village to raise a child):

Now this is in the words of your own people. They say it's for our own good to enact more gun control "for the children". Now I'm all for you running to these people for advice on how to protect your kids from your own selfish desires to have guns in the home (you did go get those gun locks and put them on every gun in your home, right?), but some of us don't want to see kids raised with no awareness of guns other than they are bad and only good for killing innocent victims. Yet here you are, calling us conspiracy nuts for disagreeing? Who made you king?
So please, enlighten us oh Great One!
P.S. Since you're so hell bent on flopping a great big red herring all over this thread, I checked with the National Swimming Pool Association. They said since it's enumerated in the Constitution of the United States that the right of the people to keep and bear awesome swimming pools shall not be infringed, Peds should be banned from asking about swimming pools on wellness visits. Happy now?
