How many innocent lives have to be taken away before another innocent life is taken away? it doesn’t matter it was accidental or intentional. Gun kills. I’m pretty sure that their parents will say “I thought I locked the gun” or “how they find that?” or “Ive never thought this would happen to my family.” A lot of you will say that “we need to educate our kids about using guns” which is ridiculous, stupid, and wasteful because that will lead to an incident just like this one. It only takes only one bullet, one gun, and one shot to kill a person. We don’t need these type of news anymore, do we? any solutions? how about changing 2nd Amendment? The keyword is “change” since any Amendment can be changed. Let’s stop adoring violence.
By the way, I’m 100% OK with shooting towards wild animals or shooting flying targets in private ranges. But not in public.
This is only the beginning. We deserve ourselves.
Disarming all the honest people is not going to curb violence any more than telling all the police to just stay home will cut crime. Accidental death is the chief cause of death for boys in that age group and guns are only a small part of those sad statistics. The media is just hyping every firearm incidence. In Connecticut, on an average day, as many infants die at the hands of killers in lab coats as died at Sandy Hook Elementary, everyday, day after day. It is done while soothing classical music plays in the back ground.
