SECURE YOUR FIREARMS: 2-Year-Old Gets A Hold Of Pistol, Dies After Pulling The Trigger

No excuse for this. Very sad.

I have no words. Just utter disgust with the irresponsibility of the father.

 

[GOPerfect]

Damn shame. Another innocent dies that did not need to.

a 2 yr old . that really sucks .... wish there more info from the link ..

why ...

I have seen a 5 yr old learning to shoot .. still needs help on pulling a OEM trigger back .. no finger strength developed yet ..

I think that the person responsible for this tragedy should not be allowed to own firearms anymore. Can anyone convince me otherwise?

what a freaking tragedy, that poor little kid. while my kids are little, all guns stay locked up at all times.

Its terrible, no other way to say it. but it is an accident, not intentional. This guy has to live with himself for the rest of his life knowing that his child is dead because he didnt secure his firearm. Whether it was by mistake, or whether he leaves it accessible in case of a home invasion. This terrible accident (with the limited details, and provided there was nothing nefarious going on) should not cause someone to lose their rights. should people who have kids drown in pools not be allowed to own pools? More kids are killed this way than by guns, and its a lack of parental supervision that this happens. Should their other kids be taken away because they screwed up? I have young kids so Im quite in touch with all this, but you asked the question so I figured Id answer.

What an absolute tragedy and 100% preventable.

Damn shame the kids dead. I’d rather see the dad get it than this poor kid. We need to be smart and not let this shit happen. This is what the left will use.

At this point it is, Should of, Could of, And if I did this or that. But it is all done and can not be changed. We have a dead toddler, a broken family that will.probanle get split up over this. There are no winners in this.
It is a very sad situation that could of been avoided, but wasn't.

If this guy loved his kid as a parent he is currently suffering the worse punishment possible for his mistake.

I highly recommend this pistol box .. I don't own it to prevent theft. Kids will be kids.
