I'm an avid gun owner and use to belong to the nra till they started pissing away all the dues on big fancy new buildings and big fat salaries.
The father and the instructor first off should get the death penalty. They murdered that kid from there stupidity, they deserve to die for it. This is the biggest problem with gun ownership. Its the same with car ownership. Just because you get a license and buy a car or gun it doesn't mean your smart enough to use them responsibly. You can not legislate common sense. You can not violate other peoples civil rights because some mindless idiot pulls a boner. You just have to have the laws that either sends these kind of people away for avery long time or sentence them to death. I am always in favour of the death penalty in cases like this. This wasn't an accident, this was a thought out plan to let the kid shoot the gun.

It really makes me ill to see what people force there kids to do now adays. But how do you legislate stupidity?
