Why would you leave the kid alone with a gun around? And this guy has a gun legally? They should pull his permit.

Why would you use a tragedy such as this to start an obvious hopeless end for a discussion? Fool.

That is an awful sad story.  I know that it's my responsibility to secure my firearms (which I do) from my kids, I wish this guy had too.

Go Bengals.

He was stupid and someone died.  People do it all the time, but mostly they use automobiles.
