If a kid gets a hold of an adult's gun and kills someone with it, why the fuck aren't the adults charged in so many of the cases? If you leave a child in a hot car and they die, you get charged. But leave a gun laying around, and a toddler kills his sister? "Well, accidents happen!" Bull-fucking shit. If you leave a gun where a kid can find it, then you should be held criminally responsible for their actions. Plain and fucking simple.
The underlying logic is "It might be me next time", and they don't want punished for doing something stupid, so the authorities (i.e., future guilty parties) just let it slide.
