Investigators found nearly two dozen guns and thousands of rounds of
ammunition lying around the Arizona home of a 3-year-old boy who
accidentally shot himself earlier this year.

The boy apparently pulled a small chair up to a counter where his
mother was working on a laptop computer March 3 and found a
..32-caliber semi-automatic pistol.

The weapon was in an ankle holster that exposed the gun’s trigger,
which police said “could easily be pulled by almost anyone.”

The boy did pull the trigger and shot himself in the abdomen. He
underwent emergency surgery and survived the shooting.

The boy’s parents, Don and Sharina Marion, have not been arrested or
charged.

Detectives executed a search warrant the family’s Pima County home and
reported 20 unsecured guns scattered throughout the house, including
shotguns, rifles, and a Colt .45 handgun in a holster affixed to the
headboard in the master bedroom.

The family does own a gun safe, where several weapons were found, but
one of the couple’s four children said he knew the safe was unlocked,
and another said his father – who is the volunteer fire chief for the
Elephant Head Fire Department — didn’t remember the combination to it.

Most of the weapons found in the house were not loaded, police said,
but several had rounds in the chamber and others had rounds in
magazines.

Sharina Marion told police she didn’t know there were unsecured guns
in the home and said she believed the gun safe was locked.

Family members said the pistol used in the shooting was usually kept
on top of a kitchen cupboard, but they said it must have fallen to a
counter below.

The Marions told police they taught their children – ages 3,7, 9, and
10 – firearms safety and that they could handle the weapons only with
parental approval.

The 3-year-old had fired weapons under supervision the day before he
shot himself at a “church shoot” with other members of their
congregation.

The toddler told police April 17 that his parents had sold the guns.

The children remain with their parents at home.

Gosh, another off the wall exception quoted by jps!

What's your point - that there are some stupid gun owners out there? Well, there are some stupid
non-gun owners out there also. In fact, there's one guy here who blames the NRA for making it
impossible for him to acquire a 'smart gun'. I can't understand why one who makes such stupid
comments would want a smart gun. Can you?

Oh, and here...all this in the past couple weeks: I noticed you failed to mention any of these.

a gun. The intruder fired at Haith, who responded by shooting the criminal in the stomach. The home

Woman fends off violent home invader, KSAZ, Phoenix, Ariz. 05/06/14
A recently widowed woman was home alone in Phoenix, Ariz. when a man broke into her house through a
back door. Once inside, the criminal attacked the woman with that may have been a garden tool. The
woman responded by retrieving a gun and shooting the home invader, ending the attack. Following the
incident, Phoenix Police Spokesman Tommy Thompson told a local news outlet, “"I would say that
anytime someone is in your house, they've assaulted you, broken into your house, and assaulted you,
you would say she appears to have been in the right at this point.”


May 9, 2014
Detroit grandmother defends herself from armed attackers, WDIV, Detroit, Mich. 05/06/14

times. Ainsworth responded by drawing her pistol and firing at the men, striking at least one. The
men were captured while seeking medical attention at a local hospital. Ainsworth’s also received
medical attention and has been released from the hospital. Following the incident, Ainsworth told a
local media outlet, “If I wouldn’t have had my gun I would be dead today.”

Sure, easy to explain:

He wanted a gun that was smarter than he is.

They have a lock up your gun law in the "gunshine state". Maybe
Arizona is just a little behind the times



"The 3-year-old had fired weapons under supervision the day before he

Let's see. Three year olds firing weapons at a church shoot. Yeah,
because jesus, little kids, and guns make for a religious moment.
