One state has strict gun lock/storage laws (Mass), a few others have laws requiring you to keep them away from minors and prohibited persons, but the majority do not. I'm guilty of haphazardly tossing mine in the nightstand. But I'm also the only human allowed in the house, not too worried about the cats getting ahold of one.
