8 year old shoots 7 year old.
http://www.aftonbladet.se/vss/nyhete...767580,00.html
in Swedish.
So, a 8 year old kid packs a gun in his backpack, and then shoots a 7 year old in the arm at school!
Turns out the 8 year old brought it with him to Play with it and accidently shoot one of.
A mother said something like; "Theese things happens, thank god the little girl is ok!".
What a stupid attitude... she makes it sound like its nothing major, sh't happens, lets get over it.
I guess better controll over arms is needed.

..or we should just take away the kids and guns from the people who are obviously unfit to handle either, let alone both.

Don't be silly. Gun control is just fancy talk for fascism and tyranny.Originally Posted by Lazul
Guns don't kill people; 8 year-olds kill people.
That kid should be tried as an adult and prosecuted to the full extent of the law. Have you guys got the death penalty in Sweden?
I hope so.

Re: 8 year old shoots 7 year old.
The parents should be held responsible. A.) For not Keeping the Gun in a Secure Place, and B.) Because they probably never told the kid about gun safety, Gun Laws, and The Punishment for breaking Sed Laws. Then it probably would have never happened.

Ah woops, this was in the US, not Sweden, sorry for not pointing that out!
Re: 8 year old shoots 7 year old.
yeah kids, if there is something they never do, its breaking the law!
Re: 8 year old shoots 7 year old.
Excellent! Then we can execute the little bugger!Ah woops, this was in the US, not Sweden, sorry for not pointing that out!

Again?
Re: 8 year old shoots 7 year old.
Shhhh.... Nobody wants to hear that- you can't hold the parents accountable for their negligence! If it wasn't for the evil guns, this could've never happened in the first place afterall.

Update, in English.
I especially love this part:
So, the father was a felon in possession of a firearm. If the existing laws were enforced properly, yada yada yada. With any luck this will kick in a 3-strikes sentence for the father.Police charged the boy's father, John L. Hall, 56, with leaving a firearm in a location accessible by an unsupervised minor, contributing to the delinquency of a minor, and possession of a firearm by a felon.
A little more disturbing:
Montgomery County is pretty well-to-do (this is a DC suburb). This ought to be good for the local news.The boy was taken into custody, and police said they were drawing up charges against him.

Re: 8 year old shoots 7 year old.
Well...Technically yes. But there's no need for that, what one needs is better control in such places as the school, places where culture is promoted or where arts or other social activities happen. Besides those places usually are autocratic so they don't have to allow guns is they don't want to. The problem is usually domestic, but not always the blame is on the parents or the tutor, there's times when nobody can be blamed.
THIS is morally repugnant. And I think it's illegitime too right?The boy was taken into custody, and police said they were drawing up charges against him.

Re: 8 year old shoots 7 year old.
That would be to trigger off the case that his parents have mislead him and made him a juvenile criminal... hence the state can step in and either monitor more closely or remove him from his 'home'.The boy also was charged, but authorities said that was done only so he could be helped by juvenile authorities.
Our genes maybe in the basement but it does not stop us chosing our point of view from the top.

Re: 8 year old shoots 7 year old.
The kids father was a felon in possession and THAT IS A FEDERAL OFFENSE.
You can't pass more laws to prevent other laws from being broken, thats like making cars illegal because of drunk driving.
I recall this happening two or three years ago under almost exact circumstances, some pimp/felon/drug dealer's stepson got his gun and killed a little girl at school.
At least theres an upside to the story.

Re: 8 year old shoots 7 year old.
The difference between America and Europe:
In Europe, when an 8 year old shoots a 7 year old, it is an honest-to-goodness accident.
In America, when an 8 year old shoots a 7 year old, the little punk was honestly trying to kill the other kid.
No sarcasm here. This is true. Urban Americans can be rotten little bastards.

Re: 8 year old shoots 7 year old.
This is just poor parenting. The father was a felon and like MRD said there are only so many laws you could pass. The kid was 8 he didnt understand the situation (probably) and a bad thing happend. Im not giving up my guns becuase of this.

I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.
Re: 8 year old shoots 7 year old.
The obvious problem here is kids. If kids did not exist, or were not allowed to develop, such things would never happen except in liquor stores. *sarcastic*

I blame the dolphins, seems they're not happy with ruining tuna nets now they're using strange subliminal messages in their squeaking to cause this sort of thing.

Re: 8 year old shoots 7 year old.
If I was to believe the news and some of the opinions on the board about firearms - I should of been shot and killed by my older brother at least 5 times, and my younger brother at least 10 times growing up.
Oh well I guess my parents were responsible and taught me how to respect and treat weapons so that there is no such thing as an accidental shooting,
O well, seems like 'some' people decide to ruin a perfectly valid threat. Nice going guys... doc bean
Re: 8 year old shoots 7 year old.
