Since the shooter and his companion are in custody I believe we can be relatively certain that she wasn't the one who shot her 13 month old son. Having access to a gun is not the problem. The problem is that there was a murder committed with a gun in the possession of someone who is not legally supposed to have it. My children had access to my guns whenever I was home. They were shooting those guns at the police range with me when they were 8. They never took the guns and shot anyone because they knew better. They were taught the difference between right and wrong. These "boys" didn't care about right and wrong. They broke the law by taking the gun and they committed murder. The gun is not the problem - the shooter is the problem.
Well, here's the thing. We have no witnesses to this crime. We only have the woman's statement that her baby was shot.
maybe it happened the way she said, but I remember the whole Susan Smith debacle...
We'll see.
The fact guns were out there at all is the problem.
