Wow. You can't make this shit up.....
It is so surreal I almost wonder if they are making this shit up. I can understand and comprehend the 15 year Kid Shoots Burglar. He was cognitive about what he was doing and had been trained. Police say he was protecting his 12 yo sister.
I can comprehend Grand Theft Auto Blamed After Eight-Year-Old Shoots Grandmother. I don't agree with the ban but I think an 8yo should not have unsupervised access to a loaded gun anymore than that kid at the wedding. But video games, TV shows and movies do effect the personality and perspectives kids have. This violent exposure is desensitizing them to it.,, Hel, one even shot another over an Xbox. Boy, 13, held on charges he killed cousin, 16, over Xbox - Jan 6. 2014
I believe in accountability and that parents should exercise control over their children's media exposure and provide a good influence over their children, just as gun owners should exercise good practice in gun safety and be held accountable when they don't. I carried my 1911 for years in a shoulder holster, cocked and locked. When it wasn't holstered, the chamber was empty/safety on. You would have to rack one in to fire it. In this video of a kid shoots man at wedding should be called kid shoots idiot. I am pretty sure the kid didn't know she was harming him. That wouldn't have happened if when the gun left his hand, he used gun safety procedures, like not leaving your gun laying around at drunken party or if the chamber was empty and safety was on.
What is incomprehensible to me, like the wedding video, is that lately toddlers and kids seem to be shooting a lot of people lately. Just last night a kid shot his mom here in Florida. Over the past year I have noticed more and more stories about kids shooting the place up. The only rational thing I can think of for the increase of kids with guns is that there must be more parents with guns that aren't educated in gun safety. Did the pending gun control issue scare a bunch of people into buying guns prematurely because they were afraid they wouldn't be able to later? I know I purchased a tactical shotgun sooner than I would have because I was worried there would be a tactical weapons ban.
Do we have a bunch of new uneducated gun owners that wouldn't have have bought a gun in the first place if it weren't for the gun control threat. Here are some stories about kids and the unsecured gins they got a hold of. I left out the intentional mass murdering, family killing murder/suicide teens.
Every gun in the hands of a child must first pass through the hands of an adult. We know that 102 people killed in these accidental gun deaths in 2011 were younger than 18, according to Vernick, with half of these children younger than age 13.
