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.

You'll be charged, here in California.

You can be charged. Whether you are or not is up to the powers that be.

OK, my expectation is that if I left a gun out, I would be charged. I know that the laws are on the books. I wouldn't feel any better about an accident, so I comply with the laws in the first place.

I was under the impression that in cases where an adult loses their child due to their own gun, people usually figure that's punishment enough and avoid filing charges.

We won't get hard numbers for that, it's swept under the rug too often.

By all means, let's put armed teachers in schools.
What the fuck could POSSIBLY go wrong?

There's a whole classroom full of little answers, right there. If I spent my days surrounded by highschoolers I'd shoot myself too.

Did the gun kill them or did a person kill them?
