Re: Five-year-old boy accidentally shoots, kills sister
This is a terrible accident. That said, I'm in favor of removing guns from individuals like this. Once you've shown you are irresponsible with guns and other lives are lost, you deserve to lose that right to own a gun.

Re: Five-year-old boy accidentally shoots, kills sister
Yes we do.
And I'm not even going to bother because hes just trolling. He just posts a link and looks for a fight. Doesnt even address the tragedy. Dont know why becaue he always gets his ass handed to him on this subject. Troll is as troll does.

Re: Five-year-old boy accidentally shoots, kills sister
A gun thread started with a sensational link from the opposite side of the argument.

Re: Five-year-old boy accidentally shoots, kills sister
Then who killed the 2 year old, the 5 year old that pulled the trigger or the parents that gave him the gun?

Re: Five-year-old boy accidentally shoots, kills sister
well, people also kill a lot of other people with guns. 900,000 gun deaths in the last 40 years in the US. considering less than 1% of that number was killed by terrorists over the same time frame, maybe we should look at our priorities?

Re: Five-year-old boy accidentally shoots, kills sister
Or people with swimming pools, bicycles, cars, etc. There's a name of a logical fallacy for taking a rare example and trying to apply it generally, like g-1 is trying here, but I couldn't find it.

Re: Five-year-old boy accidentally shoots, kills sister
The only thing you can say in this case its that its some pretty stupid parents. I don't care if they thought the gun was unloaded you treat all guns as if they are loaded and keep them out of the reach off children. If they want to allow their 5 yr old to shoot a gun thats fine under very strict guidance from a parent. At no point should a gun owner allow a 5 yr old to have total control of a gun loaded or not. There is a reason why kids eating untinsals, sissors, etc... are not sharp like mom and dads.
