Nice to find some early X-mas gift ideas
Gun Control
WTF is wrong w/ some people? before we can *ever* consider allowing something like this, we need an overhaul of our mental health system, starting w/ the over-qualified candidates as those 2 parents.
this is what happens when "normal" people have access to handguns:

recommendation for new/updated legislation: you carry when on parole, and it's used negligently, you're gone. just disappeared to a black site in egypt.
what's truly disturbing in that article is the fact the kids have already been desensitized to gun violence. what is this? somalia?

Sounds like they will both make great cops.
Seriously though, you live in a culture that glorifies and gleefully wallows in firearm based violence with its popluar culture/entertainment, and dwells in deep systemic paranoia.
This self inflicted end result is utterly predictable.
but it is all the fault of the nra.
Commie.
Guess they don't have freedom™ where you live. Got any oil ? We can free the sh!t out of you if ya do.
Socialist old chap, socialist.Commie.

what could possibly go right?

Makes about as much sense as being able to carry a firearm out to a bar. Now legal in a few states. Can't smoke cigarettes in bars here because second hand smoke is dangerous. But if you wanna take your 17 round 9mm compensator out for a drink, well that's certainly safe.
Damn cigarettes, bloody dangerous they are!
wow, even in my 20s i never thought about sex as much as he thinks about it.

Gives a whole new meaning to "spray and pray".
Wow.
An entire life of compromise just to maintain a 'tactical advantage'
Seems like a lot of work. He seems stupid enough to maintain it though.
He forgot "Because I carry a gun, I sleep in the Weaver stance..."

My head almost exploded trying to decide where to put this...gun control? Race? Or is time for a special Texas thread?

She had a freaking UZI
DOLAN SPRINGS, Ariz. (AP) — A 9-year-old girl accidentally killed an Arizona shooting instructor as he was showing her how to use an automatic Uzi, authorities said Tuesday.
Charles Vacca, 39, of Lake Havasu City, died Monday shortly after being airlifted to University Medical Center in Las Vegas, Mohave County sheriff's officials said.
Vacca was standing next to the girl at the Last Stop outdoor shooting range in White Hills when she pulled the trigger and the recoil sent the gun over her head, investigators said.
Authorities said the girl was at the shooting range with her parents. Her name was not released.
A woman who answered the phone at the shooting range said it had no comment. She did not provide her name.
It is not known if the range had an age limit on shooting or if the girl was going through a safety class.
Ronald Scott, a Phoenix-based firearms safety expert, said most shooting ranges have an age limit and strict safety rules when teaching children to shoot. He said instructors usually have their hands on guns when children are firing high-powered weapons.
"You can't give a 9-year-old an Uzi and expect her to control it," Scott said.

Guess he didn't learn from the other not so long ago incident where a 7 yr old shot himself in the head with an Uzi at a "supervised' shooting range.
I maintain that that incident is child abuse. A 9-year-old should not have been put in a position where she now has to live with the knowledge that she killed someone. Child abuse
Jesus Christ. The range owner was just on All In with Chris Hayes and is every bit as tone deaf as one would expect. His justification is that shooting an automatic weapon was high on the girls bucket list. I hope it was high on the instructor's list too. He also talked about how well trained is staff is. I guess that doesn't make up for something being a fvcking horrible idea.
Sales of that model Uzi are going to sky-rocket.
Gotta get 'em before Obama does. Duh!
The Freedom™ of a child is a Sacred Thing. If our children can't access military grade firearms, use them, and accidentally kill their supervising adults, then the terrorists have won.
