OK, I know you've been waiting for my *outrageous* comment on this one.
First,let me preface it by saying that I'm not a gun *lover*. I love the Bill
of Rights. I don't own any guns. I wouldn't mind owning a Bushmaster AR-15 or a
Kalashnikov AK-47. However, they are expensive toys that would end up sitting
in a closet collecting dust. The ammunition is expensive and I Wouldn't want to
be bothered cleaning one after shooting it. Now, my reason for justifying
having a *gun* around the house is first, it's constitutional to own one or
more. Two, people use them for various purposes, protection, hunting, target
practice, collector item etc. In this particular case, the father was
irresponsible for leaving his shot gun and ammunition in a location that a
child could get to and should be held accountable for it and probably will, at
least in a civil court, if not criminal court as well. In my community, it's
illegal to leave a firearm in a location accessible to a child. That is why we
have gun safes and trigger locks. Now, it wasn't the gun that killed the little
girl, it was the 11 year old kid. He could have carried out his deed with a
knife, a hammer, a rock or any number of ways. Inanimate objects don't kill,
people kill with inanimate objects. Now since this was not an accident, the
courts should take caution to never allow this person to own a gun again and if
caught in the future, thrown in jail and throw away the key. That is in
addition to any charges and convictions he may receive for his actions in this
case.

For all you gun lovers out there, here is another opportunity to justify
the reason for why we need them around the house:
