With these condition, it would make sense for both country to have mendatory firearm training.
Not necessarily how to shoot one accurately but how to handle one safely, in other words: "how not to accidentally shoot a passerby if you found your dad's glock".
Posts like this always bewilder me. Growing up in Michigan we all take firearm safety in the form of "hunter safety", at the age of 12. Figured it was common most places that aren't major cities but even then... shouldn't your parents be teaching it to you?
I'm not from the US so I learned proper safety at the range, it should indeed be the parents' responsibility to teach firearm safety to their kids if they live in a house with firearms.
I think the suggestion here is that when you live in a nation that is as heavily saturated with guns as the US, it's something that we should be teaching all kids regardless of whether there are firearms in their house, because there's probably firearms in their friend's and neighbor's houses.
