No, but it's fun watching knee jerkers blame guns for a murderer's actions.

Hey...

Can you please identify the responsible party or object in this case, in your opinion, of course.

BREMERTON, Wash. - Bremerton police say the 8-year-old girl was accidentally shot Wednesday afternoon at Armin Jahr Elementary School in Bremerton, by another student.

Police say a student brought a gun to school and it fired while in his backpack. The bullet went through the bag and injuring third-grader Amina Bowman.

I'll start with whichever adult allowed a child access to a loaded weapon or a weapon and ammo.

Or were you assuming the gun went to the store, bought ammunition,
loaded itself, jumped into the student's backpack and then fired a round by itself?

The boy is responsible. He's 9.

That's the law in Washington. The mom's not responsible, nobody else. He's being charged.

Who *should* be responsible, tha's a different conversation.
