Checkers Not Exciting Enough

Boy, 8, shot to death in Mass. gun show accident
WESTFIELD, Mass. (AP) — An 8-year-old boy died after accidentally shooting himself in the head while firing an Uzi submachine gun under adult supervision at a gun fair.

The boy lost control of the weapon while firing it Sunday at the Machine Gun Shoot and Firearms Expo at the Westfield Sportsman's Club, Police Lt. Lawrence Valliere said.
Deaths like this are about as infuriating as when religious nuts won't take their kids to a doctor. Reasonless.

Unfortunately that's what can happen when people treat guns like toys.
