Another senseless loss of life as a direct result of America's ridiculous obsession with guns.

What responsible parent in their right mind would deliberately put a fully automatic UZI machine pistol in the hands of a 9 yr old? For what possible purpose?

I know there are people on both sides of the gun issue and please, please spare me the 'Second Amendment' bullshit that the gun nuts are always trotting out to justify the most ridiculous of state gun laws (some of the most egregious are right here in my current home state of Georgia).

If anyone can explain why a 9 yr old girl should be on a firing range with a UZI, I'd love to hear it. Geez, if she's outgrown dolls, couldn't they (parents) just give her her own iphone or something?
