As a non-US citizen I’d like to reiterate that you can get rid of this idiocy only by banning guns.
Not interested in American opinion regrading this one, sorry, it’s a super simple fact with no discussion worth wasting time for us.
Statistically, most Americans agree with much stronger gun controls. Even a significant portion of the conservative block. It’s the few holding the rest of us ransom.
That would be because there are many people who have no idea about firearms trying to legislate firearms. When the laws are written and constructed in such a way that it makes it so that the commoner is a criminal then the law is not viable. Stop sticking ridiculous riders on your bills and legislation.

Kind of shitty to assume that all Americans have the same opinion, no?
Experience has taught me that unfortunately, while you don’t all have the same opinion, most do reject the simple premise of the original comment, for various reasons, whether they’re “left” or right.
Just so you’ve had the experience of meeting one, I am an American who is for banning guns.
I salute you.
I find it frustrating when people make a statement, and then say they aren’t interested in hearing a specific group’s opinion. It’s rude af.
Just because you have an opinion doesnt make it valid.
True, but simply stating that doesn’t change my opinion
b b but my sport makes me feel good!
and mountain climbing will only injure me
i want an exciting sport that will hurt others
Or the mother could.have practiced proper gun safety.
The kid could have done this woth a knife that was left in her purse
Okay, parent should be held responsible… but how will making parent absent from kids life improve kid’s behavior? Punish them some other way. Community service, money, whatever.
I would think a parent this irresponsible would do more damage to the kid being around than not being around. The fact that she showed no remorse for what she did doesn’t bode well for how she’d raise the kid.
My guess is if a child shot someone then the parent isn’t fit for the task.
