Well, you don't see many kids walking around with handguns, do you?

There seem to be plenty of them in Baltimore, Detroit and Chicago..
That is the point of a handgun, you can't see people walking around
with them.

To the liberals, those don't count, remember.

You made a good point. If the parents OK it, who's going to stop
them. Perhaps we need to see some
much stronger action taken against parents whose kids have access to
the guns and use them
illegally.


Most of those kids don't have functional parents



Any parent who gives a functioning .22LR Rifle to a little kid, one less
than 16 at a minimum, is not a functional parent.


Not now-a-days anyway. 50 or 60 years ago it may have been common in
certain sections of the country where hunting and varmint shooting was a
daily occurrence. Back then then the concept of a school mass shooting
never entered anyone's minds, parents or kids.

Those areas today are fully integrated into instant news and influences
thanks to the Internet, Smart phones and Social Media. Times change.
