Kids Shooting Each Other

Click on Detroit reports on the latest child shooting.

This has become such a familiar story there's no need to copy and paste it. The uncle was upstairs, the 4-year-old brother shot his 2-year-old sister in the head. She's in critical condition.

The video contained a couple interesting things. The police chief said, "The terrible thing about it is the parents have to be responsible..." I guess what he meant was the terrible thing is gun owners who are parents are not acting responsibly.

At the end of the video, the news guy said the police said there "could be charges, with the emphasis on could."

I guess that about sums it up. Even where responsibility is direct, charges are only possible. No wonder we can't seem to put an end to this stuff.

What's your opinion? Please leave a comment.
