accidental?

That’s three child shootings in the Houston area over four days. In all three cases, the guns were left out in the open, loaded and unsecured, by allegedly responsible adults who should have known better. It’s easy to think of these incidents as “accidental” shootings, and, indeed, that’s how they’ve been described by some media and law enforcement sources. But these aren’t accidents. They’re the completely predictable consequences of criminally negligent behavior on the part of these kids’ parents and guardians, and they should be treated as such.

Lady, stop exaggerating please, will ya? Guns don't kill, people do. If you go for stricter gun control laws, these guys will resort to the next deadly weapon "automobile", they will start gifting them to their 5, 6, 7 year olds.
