http://www.cnn.com/2014/08/26/us/arizona-girl-fatal-shooting-accident/index.html?hpt=hp_t2 Is our culture just completely insane at this point?
I just don't understand. You think your child needs training in firing a weapon, well that's fine. You think she needs to fire an Uzi at age 9? 99% of my upset with the proliferation of guns in this country comes from the fact that idiots should not be allowed to own guns.
I saw this story this morning on the news and thought to myself, "Br4dw4y5ux is going to use this story to shill up on the anti-gun agenda."
I was just going to create a thread on this. WTF is going on with people in MURICA? http://mashable.com/2014/08/27/9-year-old-kills-gun-instructor/ The instructor is showing her how to use a UZI, a fucking UZI (no fatal shot shown, just footage of instructor showing the girl as she flails the gun around)
A sign at the Last Stop in White Hills, AZ, directs visitors to shooting range. A shooting instructor was shot there on Aug. 25, 2014, according to the Mohave Co. Sheriff's Office. (Tiffany Murphy/FOX5)
I have no problem with the child shooting an UZI, the "instructor" has to know that these kids can not sustain a prolonged burst of automatic fire. 2 or 3 round bursts or a secured weapon.
Lol wut? Kids can be taught to shoot plenty of firearms that they are capable of handling safety. Micro SMGs are not one of them.
Not that it has anything to do with this thread, not sure why someone thought it was relevant, but those morons doing the prank videos are going to end up dead and they will deserve it. Don't go into Brownsville and East NY and mess with those dudes.
Really give your kid a little 22 to use if you want to teach them gun safety. A fucking uzi? You have to be out of your mind. Sorry, I'm all for the 2A but this is retarded. How the fuck is someone getting uzi's anyway?
Yeah I seen that a couple of months ago and was thinking the same. Brownsville, even today, don't play around.
A 9 year old with an uzi? Really? I can see literally no reason why that is necessary. Hell, I don't see the reason why a 9 year old should be holding any gun. Ever. Maybe like a 16 year old or something but 9? What are they going to do, wake up in the middle of the night when there is a robbery and go all Rambo on the intruders? No. They are going to cry in their bed and probably piss themselves. I say lock the parents up for manslaughter and maybe people will think twice about giving a gun to their pre-teen. The kid is already going to be fucked up for life knowing they shot a man to death.
Well, the instructor almost asked/deserved to be shot - you got to know they don't have the arm strength to control that thing... So frigging dumb & yes, now all the gun activists will be up in arms... See what happens!? Damn stupid...
