Re: I didn't see this posted anywhere.

The decision by the Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts in the case of Jupin v. Kask is the first of its kind in the state and "sends a clear message that guns must be stored locked and unloaded," Daniel Vice, staff attorney for the Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence said Friday.

It would have probably ended up been loaded eventually whether or not it was stored unloaded.

If unloaded, and the $20 in the kiddos piggy bank for an unemployed perp enables him to buy the ammo, does that equate to liability as well in SJC opinion?

Makes no sense.

Under Texas law, I don't think you can criminally be held accountable for it, but I'm sure in Texas civil court you could in some sort or fashion.

IMHO its sort of ironic that a criminal can steal your weapon and kill someone, and you be held accountable. If a criminal informant gives Para-SWAT bad info/address, and they gun you down, from what I've read, Police typically are held unnaccountable (in a criminal sense).

The common denominator seems to be the "criminal".

No offense to LEO, just an observation from someone who tries to apply logic to our CJS.
