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.

We did not a problem for years with kids and 22s. Was also required to
take a hunter safety course if you wanted a hunting license. Now, the
kids get their firearm training from action computer games, such as Grand
Theft auto.

I have a Sony PS4 that I bought for winter entertainment mostly for
sports games like the "Madden Football series and some golf games. I
also tried and liked the "Uncharted" series and the Laura Croff "Tomb
Raider" series.

I bought a couple of those "Modern Warfare" games to try. Didn't care
for them at all although they are big hits with kids. Too gory, with
constant killing of people with modern weapons. Some of the stuff is
very realistic. I can see why young people can become desensitized to
blood, guts and killing.
