I think that it's important to keep a reasonable perspective. Pretending that an environment like a restaurant, or a Wal-Mart, or a movie theater is identical, from the perspective of the risk of negligent discharges, when compared to gun shows or gun shops is absolutely ridiculous.

A couple of years ago, I was at a gun show where a negligent discharge took place. Keep in mind, the police check guns at the door to make sure they are not loaded and then strap the action making it inactive. The entire building, full of at least 1,000 people went dead silent. Fortunately, no one was hurt. Whenever lots of people will be handling guns, there does need to be strict rules in place. Because out of 1,000 functional people, 140 of them will have IQ's between 70-85.
