more guns please

for those of us (one or two) that are sick and tired of politics, there are other news out there.

like this story from massashootsets, where an 8 year old boy shot himself in the head with an uzi at a weapons show his dad had taken him to. it was, of course, an accident and who'd have ever thunk that handing an eight year old an automatic weapon could be dangerous? his genious father states it like this :"this accident was truly a mystery to me".

i think i might be as baffled as he is.

he continues: "i really don’t know why it happened. i don’t think it’s relevant that he was holding the weapon".

really? not even a little bit relevant? if he was holding something else, like a carrot, u think he would have accidentally killed himself by shoving it in his ear?

i think this is an obvious lesson for all of us.

eight years old is clearly way too late to hand ur kid an uzi for the first time. had this poor child had more experience he might only have shot someone else. no, get em armed as early as possible. im taking my responsibility seriously;

*e* got her first bazooka last month and tiger sleeps with a meat cleaver in his crib.

yahoo!

You gotta be frickin' kiddin' me.

I wonder if Charlton Heston is going to rise from the dead to speak in this kid's town to say guns are great.

Idiots.

I'd move but people are stupid everywhere.

LOL

This is so tragic. I can't believe the father can even bring himself to speak let alone consider what was or wasn't relevant.
