介绍:
A shooting instructor in Arizona was accidentally killed after a nine year old girl shot him in the head.
The nine year old was being taught by Charles Vacca how to fire a submachine gun when she lost control of the weapon and shot him.
The incident was caught on film as her parents had been standing nearby recording their daughter's lesson.
The accident has caused many to return to the on going debate of gun control in the country.
According to the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence, an average of more than 100,000 people are shot every year in the United States.
After analyzing the footage, police have decided not to press criminal charges against the young girl.

In my area, Buffalo County Wisconsin, yesterday a woman with a handgun fought off two home invaders who assaulted her with a knife. She missed, but the intruders turned tail and ran. I suspect she is not calling guns a "social plague" right this moment. Yes, this gun instructor messed up, but mishaps occur with cars, boats and aircrafts. Do we want to shut down auto travel because it's more dangerous than gun ownership?

A "Burgers and Bullets" program that offers customers lunch with a trip to the range, where they can choose from among more than 20 automatic weapons to shoot? The second amendment is serious It was put in place to Americans from a tyrannical government. How did it degrade to the point where "exercising your second amendment right" includes treating deadly weapons like happy meal toys?

Guns are designed with the sole purpose of killing people. If you own a gun, you intend to kill a person with it. Target shooting? Get a pellet gun or a bow and arrow, not a fully automatic 9mm Uzi.

Will someone please explain to me why it is necessary to teach a 9 year old how to use a machine gun?

That accident was 100% the fault of the trainer. Anyone who has shot automatic weapons knows that the power from continious shots causes the barrel to climb toward the path of least resistance. Sad loss, it was avoidable. I truly feel terrible for that little girl, she didn't need this in her brain for the rest of her life.
