Americans are mad. Who in their right mind would have a kid and a loaded gun anywhere near each other.
I think you can buy guns in Walmart in some states. The gun laws in America are ****** up, that’s for sure
Cos America has ****** up gun laws. It's just completely out of my range of thinking, how someone can just buy a gun from a shop and freely walk round with it.
They're only dangerous in the wrong hands. In my opinion that's anybody's hands....they were meant to be dangerous!!! Destroy all the guns and the world suddenly becomes a safer place.
It's not even an isolated incident. This happened last month... "a woman in Oklahoma was fatally shot by her three-year-old with a semiautomatic handgun. Police said it appeared the child picked up the gun while his mother was changing a one-year-old’s diaper."
The gun thing is something I'll never understand in America, "the right to bear arms" is a part of their constitution (fair enough) but surely it harks back to a different time...ie 1776. But it's gone too far anyway now, every policeman/woman has one, private security guards have them, so you can't expect the general public to just give them up and no-one else - the only hand gun I've ever seen was a ten quid Gat Gun when I was about ten, and I managed to get accidentally shot in the forehead within ten minutes (scar only disappeared a couple of years ago).
