Gun control begins in the home.
I found someone's loaded pistol in between my couch cushions. Where they forgot it after showing it off to someone.
So I bring it to them and they're like "Oh yeah, where was that?"
We had a teaching moment that began with "The fact that you don't know where it was is why you are in trouble."
@AskTheDevil Good for you!!

This is one of the many reasons why CC licenses should require demonstration of safe handling, including the use of a proper holster. There are some excellent pocket holsters made for those who prefer to carry that way. When used properly, that firearm isn't coming out of your pocket by accident.
@voltronic @AskTheDevil Horrifying.

I was at a supermarket a couple years back chatting with an older gentleman and his wife. He was a military vet, I forget which branch.
A little later I saw him bend down to grab something from a low shelf, and I could see he had a revolver in the back pocket of his very loose-fitting jeans. It was almost falling out. I could have taking his weapon and used it against him before he had realized anything had happened.
