    Yeah; a 6 year old will play with anything they get their hands on, you sure as hell don’t leave a gun where they can get it. Especially with ammunition available…

      I suspect that’s what the gun charges are for. Proper gun etiquette is not to keep the damn thing loaded.

      The Wikipedia article about this case suggests the kid knew what the gun was. He threatened to shoot another student, and probably shot the teacher intentionally. This isn’t just a case of a kid randomly playing with a gun.

      Of course he’s not criminally responsible for that because he’s six, but he probably needs an intensive intervention to make sure he doesn’t turn into a monster.
