It's about as plausible as fender's anecdote about meeting a racist dude who despised Hispanics yet went out of his way to help some whose car broke down in the middle of the road Something that I noticed about fender, regardless of what he is arguing about, he always has his own anecdote that applies to him There was a topic about older men only going after 18-21 year olds being creepy, fender comes in and says his grandma and grandpa started dating in that age range (and his grandpa being like 10 years older than her) Topic about people using the term "monkeying it up", fender comes in and claims that he personally has used this term (despite "monkeying it up" not really being all that common at all, especially in comparison to "monkeying around") And then there's this topic and many more examples. --- ...

pretty much everyone i knew grew up with guns. you were taught as young as you could comprehend about them to limit any curiosity about them which leads to accidents. if you wanted to see it, you were shown it, shown how and how not to hold it and could handle it (unloaded and supervised obviously). if you wanted to shoot it you were taken out to shoot it supervised. this was when i was 6 years old. when i was 11 i had 3 of my own guns that were in reach because i wasnt a little psycho and was shown i could be trusted with them. 11 is old enough to know the dangers of the situation.
if youre going to have guns around you need to take away the mysticism of them which involves them always being around. thats not to say you should just leave shit laying around when kids are present (especially when kids have other kids hanging around), but they cant be hidden way and out of sight out of mind either which also leads to bad shit possibly happening. that said if this kid was showing signs of violent or unpredictable behavior thats cause to keep firearms away from them and actually be "responsible" (which varies from situation to situation). ...

It was unloaded, but ammo for it was also sitting right there in that same box. I never touched it once. LOL! How would that not be in the realm of possibilitys? Was literally the same exact way for me growing up.

It's almost like my disbelief applied to the poster (who has a history of making up bizarre anecdotes) rather than to the anecdote itself Regardless of his anecdote, which really shouldn't have any bearing of the validity of the position and arguments either way, a lot of people do raise their kids like that without issue. --- It's okay to be white. ...

Completely idiotic to allow kids free access to firearms, considering how much mental illness develops around puberty.

Wait...is this really a discussion about guns? Not the fact that a kid killed his grandmother and himself over something really trivial? Only on CE I guess...

But I'm frankly more baffled by the people who have an issue with people thinking children shouldn't allowed to have unsupervised access to guns. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

I don't think anyone is blaming the gun here. Just arguing about whether or not a kid should be allowed access to a kid without supervision.

Only on CE I guess... Because its the wrong conversation. You have millions of households with firearms that arent under lock and key, yet these types of incidents are very rare. But, incidents of violent outbursts by school aged adolescents are on the rise, with kids assaulting each other and adults. --- PSN: scorpion_4160 Currently Playing: NCAA 14, Darksiders series(PS3) ...

It is very common for households that have guns in it to have parents teach their kids where the guns are, how to use them, the dangers of them, etc. And as a result, the overwhelming vast majority of those households get by without any gun-related incidents.

You recognize that kids are hurting each other and themselves yet you have an issue with people saying that maybe we shouldn't also be leaving guns out for them to grab. I think people should be punished if their kid uses their gun and harms others or themselves. But if someone leaves their gun out and nothing happens I'm not going to ask they get punished for that. I don't think they should be doing that tho. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Tragic. I'm assuming the gun belonged to the grandparents- if that's the case, they share some blame as it was accessible to this kid. Gun owners need to take responsibility for how they store and secure their weapons. edgy ... Copied to Clipboard!

Again, I wasn't disputing that they can help, but pointing out they can also hurt/make things worse (countless stories of kids playing w/ guns). In this situation? I don't know details of the family's habits, but if there wasn't a gun in the household the 11 year old may not have been lethal...(hitting or even stabbing instead). ... Copied to Clipboard!
