8 year old tries Uzi @ gun show, shoots self in the head
^^ not me punishment has always been swift for me, from police, life, hell the world. You have to be accountable for your actions, the father yes his punishment is just started . but those who were in charge, they need to pay, and not with money, a lawsuit to help the boys family is not realy gonna help. I cant leave the house with out thinkng what actions that imples (thats right just leavng the house has reprocutions, but so does staying at home) what precautions I have to implement in the day. theri should be no learning from this, they should have already known.

You crawl before you walk. You learn from you mistakes. What good is a doctor going to do in prison?

waste my money and not learn shit, there is death penalty for people like him
or if he actually learns something from this, he will put his life or part of it towards spreading the lesson he learned:
Kids & Uzis ---> someone's gonna die
All the hunting and gun loving issues aside, we are talking about a semi-automatic weapon with no good use in any of the 2 fields mentioned. this is merely a self-defense or attack weapon designed for human altercations
wtf should an 8 year old have to do with it? i have no idea.

Go ahead, try to push the law on top law-mobb boss, the guy hosting the show with his gun organization is a POLICE CHIEF
i think only DA and judges are more powerful than him in the hierarchy of local officials

"People like him" what idiots, shit if well killed all the idiots in this world there wouldnt be anyone left. Buy the way an Uzi is a fully automatic weapon! Thats why the recoil forced the gun up shooting himself. I cant stand most people because there stupid but i cant see killing or imprisoning him.

IMO anyone who allows such a young kid to even hold an Uzi is devoid of any common sense .
The fact that it was legal is beyond my understanding.
What next ?
Five year olds with grenade launchers.... ? :eek:

Yes. Maybe a bazooka and flame thrower would be nice additions to the toy box as well. ;)
Cartoonist Al Capp, of Li'l Abner fame, once drew a cartoon of a kid ordering a working rifle, through the mail, which was cheaper than a toy one.

Breaking news:
There is a passage in the state firearms regulations that prohibits furnishing an automatic weapon to a minor.
Funny... the 'experts' putting on the show didn't see that...
Depending on the interpretation of that passage, charges may be filed.

I am a tad ignorant of how these shows work , do you have to have a permit to use the weapons or can just anyone go there and try out the latest kit ?
What the hell would you do if one of the customers suddenly decided to thin out the crowd ?
To me it seems a very bizarre scenario to be selling guns like the local womans group would sell fresh baked cakes.
I know I may get some stick for this next comment but that's life......
Maybe the kids father is a failed Darwin award winner , letting his kids shoot themselves is a form of retro-active contraception that prevents his moronis genes from being passed on.

Not only did the show not require attendees to hold ANY type of permit, but that was included in the flyers for the event, which read like a fucking circus announcement:
From AP coverage of the accident:"An advertisement said it would include machine gun demonstrations and rentals and free handgun lessons.
"It's all legal & fun â?? No permits or licenses required!!!!" reads the ad, posted on the club's Web site.
"You will be accompanied to the firing line with a Certified Instructor to guide you. But You Are In Control â?? "FULL AUTO ROCK & ROLL," the ad said.
The ad also said children under 16 would be admitted free, and both adults and children were offered free .22-caliber pistol and rifle shooting."
Full auto rock-n-roll? You have GOT to be kidding me. Fun for the whole family!

In nature...it's called "thinning the herd".
