FFS, I even saw one coloured a pretty pink for little girls. These killing machines are basically being marketed as toys. What sort of a f*cked up society is this??

F*cked up indeed. I'm still hoping that these pink kids' guns are a joke and that I've been sucked in by an internet prank.

No parent in their right mind would buy these things. I shudder to think what sort of people are responsible for manufacturing and marketing them.

Ok, appearently I'm dealing with idiots, so I'll make this simple for you.

1. Who bought the five year old a rifle? It was the patents.

2. Who bought the ammunition for that rifle? The parents.

3. Who loaded the rifle, put it in the hands of a five year old, and then failed to proprrly supervise that five year old? The parents.

The responsibility for this begins and ends with the kids patents. Saying its the gun's fault is everybit as smacking retarded as blaming cars because someone decided to drink and drive.

I stand corrected.
You're completely and utterly correct.

Then let's just suppose that it's probably for the best that there's restrictions on completely dumb-arse parents being able to obtain firearms for what are probably their damn dumb-arse children.

Bullshit.

Did Cricket put that gun in that kids hands? No, the kids parents did.

Is it Cricket's responsibility to supervise that child? No, that's a job for the parents that bought the rifle.

Did Cricket load that rifle? No, the parents did.

Did Cricket put a loaded firearm into the hands of a five year kid and then walk away from that kid while it was still loaded with the safety off?

No, the kids parents did that.

Oh, you're so close. You've almost hit the nail instead of marring the wood.

What we need is comprehensive manditory firearms training given by certified instructors as part pf the process for purchasing firearms.

A question: Why do you think that your (i.e. in yank land) firearm related homicide rate is roughly 12-15 times ours after corrections are made for differences in population?

Don't say gangs, 'cause allowances for them will only bring it down to about 10 times.

No. It's Cricket's responsibility to not manufacture guns for children. The responsibility for this most certainly begins with the manufacturer, and ends with the parents.

Are you serious????

Apparently its communism or some such crap if you have to wait a few days to check if your not a smacking psychopath.
What would the NRA make of such a suggestion.

My god man what are you, a bloody LIBERAL?

There are plenty of reasons and not a damn one is because of firearms. To say otherwise is evety bit as daft as saying the reason why Russia has a higher rate of alcoholism is due to plentiful vodka.
