memphis 4-year-old shoots and kills self while playing with a gun

hi

Seems like every other day another toddler has shot themself because they thought they were playing with a toy

Why do people keep leaving loaded guns in rooms with toddlers. You would think with every one of these types of shootings getting reported lately, and all this gun control rhetoric going on it would at least make people more vigilant about their guns..

Funny you should mention that. I had my nephew at the Emergency Room Saturday, when a child was brought in by ambulance. He had choked to death on a jawbreaker. Didn't make the news.

dang I dont want them to ban guns or buckets I would just like people to be more responsablw with the gyns and buckets they have

Yes let's all compare leaving bucket's around and giving children sweet's to leaving a loaded gun around a 4 year old!

Yes, I understand there is a lot of propaganda around and lot's of agenda's....but to brush to one side the real issue that people need to be more responsible with gun's around small children and respond with sarcasm in this case of this 4yr old child is quite frankly sickening.

If out of all this gun crap at the moment, it is actually highlighting the danger's of irresponsible gun ownership around small children and making the public more aware and think more.....then I would say that's something positive.
