Would you mandate this safety training?

No legal ownership without approved training by licensed instructors?

It wouldn't be necessary. Every single person in America would go through firearms safety training in the 12th grade. When I said universal , I meant universal .

Now, that might cover this particular situation, but how do we deal with the guns/alcohol situation?

The same way we deal with people with the cars/alcohol situation. Interlock systems are only demanded of those who prove they have a problem, rather than everyone because there *might* be a problem.

Due process matters, especially where constitutionally protected rights are concerned.
