"Police also plan to talk to the other children and to the boy's parents."
I'm betting "parents" = "parent". Singular.
There are a hell of a lot of gun-related stories in the news lately. I'll be looking for a major push for more gun control this year.
The flurry of gun "protection" laws from this should be interesting.
Sheesh! The boy's parents are in big trouble on this one. Yes, parents have a responsibility to secure the firearms in their home, or teach their brats to keep their hands off them.
Looks like this kid's parents failed on both counts.
"accidentally went off"
Love it......went off. Sheesh.
What are the real statistics on accidental shootings in the U.S.
Some people have been tossing around a lot of statistics here (Canada) to support the Liberal hand gun ban. (Even though the Liberals were defeated, this is sure to come up again.)
For instance, some said that 2/3 of those shot in home invasions were actually family members, who were shot accidently.
That are the true facts? (Not the fake but true facts.)
I find this hard to believe. I live 2 miles away and happen to know that you can't even possess guns within 100 feet of a school, park, day care center, etc.
Stories like these show the need for mandatory weapons training for children as young as eight.
