The law defines secure as follows:
46.13 3)
“Secure” means to take steps that a reasonable person would take to prevent the access to a readily dischargeable firearm by a child, including but not limited to placing a firearm in a locked container or temporarily rendering the firearm inoperable by a trigger lock or other means.
How do you see the described situation matching that description?
Which of these apply to the situation needs to be decided by a court, right?
Let’s try a different situation: the loaded gun is locked up in a cupboard. The child knows about the gun and the key. The key is easily accessible to the child.
Do you think the law applies in this case?
Sec. 46.13. (b) (2) left the firearm in a place to which the person knew or should have known the child would gain access.
There is no way that gramps can't be charged for doing exactly that.
According to 46.13. (e) it is only a class A misdemeanor however. IMO this should be treated as a felony.
Aren’t there any laws regarding safe gun storage?

While Alaska is pretty massive it is not as big as you think it is. Follow this link to the website that Redditor used to create the visual and drag Alaska onto the rest of the US: https://www.thetruesize.com/#?borders=1~!MTYxNTY4MzI.ODIwNzY1OAMTA0MzY2ODQ(MzUyODQ4MQ~!CONTIGUOUS_USMTAwMjQwNzU.MjUwMjM1MTc(MTc1)Mg~!INNTI2NDA1MQ.Nzg2MzQyMQ)MQ~!CNOTkyMTY5Nw.NzMxNDcwNQ(MjI1)MA~!US-AK*MzU2MjMwMg.Mjg0OTg3OTk)Mw

I, a German, am also struggling with travel times/distances in Britain.
Me: (looks at map) I should be there in 1h tops.
Hours pass…
Me: I’m only half way there? WTF!
Your geography lesson for today is to map 2 routes across the EU and compare them to your statement.
How is that a step a reasonable person would take?
And how would that be a reasonable interpretation of the law?
