How would you enforce such a law? Sounds like all they would do would be to allow you to prosecute people after the fact.

    Yes, and when people realize it is being enforced they will do it more.

    Also add the cavet that if a gun is stolen and misused by a member of the household, they would be liable for whatever actions were taken. This putting them on the hook for the shooting, too.

    Honestly I'm not sure about that. Most people don't want their kids to be murderers in the first place, yet here we are. They never think their kid would do it.

    That's wishful thinking. We've seen time and time again that parents are (willfully) ignorant about their kids mental health issues and will look their other way while their precious sketching hallways and figures out the choke points.

    You're responsible for the people your gun kills is a pretty simple fix and would probably lead to lots of people buying gun safes overnight.
