Another 'Child' Victim of 'Gun Violence'

Gun Control advocates like to scream to high heaven about the number of 'children' that are dying from 'gun violence' while at the same time adding 18 & 19 yr old adults into the stats and fighting against any form of safety training at all, believing in the power of ignorance.

When you get late teens dying or wounded by gunfire (the overwhelming majority ), it's more often than not cases like this:

Teen, 15, allegedly shot himself in the head after stealing gun

Houlton Police Chief Butch Asselin said Wednesday that the three teens had planned the burglary earlier that evening with the intent of stealing guns to rob a bank. He said the injured 15-year-old boy loaded a stolen assault rifle in preparation for an armed confrontation with police.

Police found a 15-year-old boy with a head wound who said he had accidentally shot himself.

Asselin said that police knew who the 15-year-old was associated with. They later found Joshua Nason, 18, of Houlton and a 13-year-old boy, also of Houlton.

Just three poor innocent children that had their minds taken over by the evil guns.

Or this one:

CLEARLAKE OAKS, Calif. – A 17-year-old Clearlake Oaks boy has sustained a gunshot wound to the head as the result of an apparent accidental discharge of a handgun.

Further investigation revealed that the juvenile had told his stepfather he had bought a handgun several weeks prior, but the stepfather had no further information about the alleged transaction, Bauman reported.

If only we had banned 'assault clips', required all transactions go through FFL dealers, and licensed all the owners these tragedies would never have happened.
