9 year old girl accidentally kills gun instructor with Uzi

Thoughts?

Unbelievable. That girl is only 9 years old and she already has one more confirmed kill than I do.

Well, she would've only killed him with a knife otherwise. Right, guys?

Anyone dumb enough to give a 9 year old an Uzi deserves a bullet to the head.

If only that instructor had a gun this wouldn't have happened.

Don't even know where to begin with this... and I won't because it's just going to turn into a sh** fight.

You're an idiot.

And so are you.

seems like a pretty shitty instructor

This is a tragic accident but it's really the instructors own fault. He should not have been standing above her as she shot the gun. An automatic Uzi has some insane recoil. A 9 year old wouldn't be able to handle it.

This

Not anymore.

A more knowledgeable instructor would have avoided this accident. My prayers go out to the instructors family.

well I'm sure that makes them feel better

*eye roll*

Why would anyone give a gun to a nine year old?

Any realistically sane gun advocate does not advocate a 9 year old shooting an Uzi. Don't confuse that with a capable adult shooting a bolt action rifle, or similar.

I'm not sure what else I can do for them at the moment.

Well you already did nothing for them, so I mean you can only go up from that

Who the hell thinks it's a good idea to let 9 year olds shoot guns?

prayer=nothing?

This earned a big lol, even if your kinda being a jerk! :)

Well it sure as shit isn't helping them, maybe it made you feel better

There's nothing wrong with shooting guns at an early age. This was an issue with the instructor. Not the girl.

Yes. What help does it do? Might make you feel better but this isn't about you.

What are you implying?

Air has the right view on this matter

That he has no confirmed kills but is neither admitting or denying having one or more unconfirmed kills.

@airshocker I guess that's just a cultural difference then, I find the very notion absurd.

Wasn't a very good gun instructor was he.

Precisely.

Well I don't think he really deserved it. But yeah, that's a pretty fucking dumb thing to do.

You know, I have been nothing, but respectful in this thread. You should try it.

We get it, you're atheist.

Don't ask a question if you don't want an answer.

I heard when white people talk like this, one should take it seriously.

How about we just post how we want as long as we remain within the rules

And you would be wrong

Rather polite way of putting it. 9 year olds are better off with dildos than guns.

Strawman. Al-Qaeda frequently used and trained–and still does–kids around the age of 5 as militants. A 9 year-old can certainly handle a gun (an uzi was a bit much for a novice though). You don't know jack shit. The instructor was playing it too casually.

Wow. This could have been avoided by so many preventative measures.

@BranKetra: damn straight

Is this a parody/joke post? I honestly can't tell. Using Al Qaeda as reasoning for a 9 year old being able to wield an Uzi. Amazing.

Also, where the heck is this strawman you are talking about?

Lol at using al Qaeda as an example to support the idea of allowing kids to handle such weapons at a young age

Considering he put the little girl in just as much danger with his actions, I'd have to disagree with you there.

More or less of an idiot than the gun instructor?

I don't know why I found this funny.

Can ask I the question if the girl had accidentally shot herself, what will be the outcome?

Also, I wonder how the 9 year old is feeling now and how will this affect the rest of her life.

Okay, why the hell is a 9 year old handling a loaded Uzi anyways? That has disaster written all over it...

Why it's legal to give a 9 year old a gun, I will never know.
