But at least it's not another one of 1,006,743 campfires blazing with hysteria, "Massa Barry's messing with our social security! The end of the world is nigh!"
One really wishes the primitives would get back to discussing issues of importance.

Quite aside from the debate on gun control, what the **** is wrong with people who don't secure their guns? Yet another story about a small child getting his hands on a loaded gun and shooting someone.
Police: 6-Year-Old Accidentally Shot by 4-Year-Old
Authorities are deciding whether to charge anyone after police say a 6-year-old was shot in the head by a 4-year-old in New Jersey.
The older boy is in serious condition.
Authorities are still investigating how the younger child obtained the .22-caliber rifle from his family's Toms River home Monday night.
Police Chief Michael Mastronardy says the children were outside the 4-year-old's home when the boy went inside, got the rifle and shot the 6-year-old about 15 yards away. It's not clear if the 4-year-old pulled the trigger or if the rifle accidentally discharged.

3. People don't secure their guns because they are not nearly as "responsible" as they tell us.
I'll bet just about everyone involved in one of these tragedies would have said the were "responsible" and careful right before someone gets shot.
I'm sure they all have an excuse, and it's never the gun or their gun obsession.
Gun cultists just say we can't do anything because there are more people who don't have accidents, so we should just mark these tragedies off as the price we have to pay to allow immature/irrational/callous people to play with guns to society's detriment.
Sad and darn stupid.
^^^describing herself, of course.

14. LOL...you guys...
".. there are more people who don't have accidents.."
Maybe if it wasn't so dramatic...the rate that is..100million+ gun owners, less than 100 kids per year tragically killed, or .00001%..I hope this isn't the new standard for too dangerous and to "society's detriment"..society will be getting a little...boring if we eliminate all things resulting in .00001% accidental fatality rate among children..

15. Guess you forgot all the other shootings by so-called law-abiding/responsible gun cultists.
Wounds, guns used for intimidation, etc.

21. Why not give us those numbers, eh?
As opposed to shootings committed by people already prohibited from owning firearms..that is, illegally in possession at the time of the shooting..

22. Why waste time, you and your buddies have indicated you'll carry/accumulate guns no matter what.
^^^which of course is the bitch admitting she has no numbers.
