A few years back I had friends, that died in car wreck, loose leg in Motorcycle accident, Paralyzed in football, 12 year old friend die getting thrown from a horse and 12 year old friend shoot his sister by accident with gun.
All of them were equally tragic and equally an accident. Crap happens we can not stop all accidents. Why is it people want rid of guns, but not motorcycles, horses, cars or football?
My kids have guns, horses, motorcycles, ATV's and play sports. One day they might die from one of those things and at that point I am sure I would wish I never let them have that specific thing. But I can not let my children live in fear of all things because it might kill them. You have to live life and deal with what it gives you!
