    College age students make decisions all the time about the proper use of firearms. Ever seen the average age of a U.S. soldier? It's 19 years old. They handle them responsibly, because they are trained to do so. It's not guns that are the problem. It's a lack of training and awareness, mixed with a "think of the children" paranoia.
