HBO's "Task" is a great show...and I especially loved this inclusion of secure gun storage! It's a a quick reference, but it helps normalize an important part of responsibile gun ownership that can save lives at home

Thank you Rep Jason Crow for the @cuanschutz.bsky.social Town Hall, and for taking my question about programs and research for violence prevention.
Thanks also for encouraging the academic and medical communities to keep fighting for science, health, and for those who can't fight for themselves
