Letter: Sanctions on gun owners

Have gun will shoot! Killing bears and dogs! Recently we have had two animal killings by people who carry guns.

The dog in Rancho San Rafael Park and now a bear cub in Incline Village. In both instances authorities say it was self-defense! No reprimands, no confiscation of the gun even to check to see if it is a legal gun owner.

How sad, this is going to escalate and gun owners can say it was self-defense “stand my ground” incident. This is scary.

There should be some type of sanction on the gun owner to see that he is mentally fit to continue to own a gun; not just a background check on first purchase. Just like we must register our potentially deadly cars every year so should a gun owner.
