God dam people. Just because you have an ethusiastic fetish for guns does not mean that you have to give them to your kids.
People who are pro-guns keep make excuses for why we do not need more regulations or background checks for guns. I keep hearing things like: "This is all just an excuse to unarm the U.S. citizenry so the federal government can opress us" and "guns aren't harming people, it is stupid people with guns harming people."
While there may be some truth to the second argument, guns are clearly too abundant in this country and at the very least, people are using them way to irresponsibly.
Also the NRA has a ton of pull in Congress, which makes it nigh impossible to get regulations passed.
We don't make excuses for people who don't know how to use their guns. That's just ignorance and plain stupidity on their part. The actual people that are against gun control are the ones that know that you can't keep a gun out of a criminal or wrong doers hands no matter how hard you try to regulate guns.
It was the families choice to give their son a weapon. They didn't teach him what it does, or how to use it. Children that age don't even realize the difference between life or death at that point in their lives. So you can only blame the ignorant parents.
Also, guns are abundant in nearly every country in the world, except Great Britain, but there are an abundance of knives there. I wonder if they'll pass a knife-control law?
Also, this doesn't happen in the south 99% of the time. You knowing nothing about where I live makes me giggle like a school girl.
