Report: American Toddlers Average One Shooting Per Week in 2015

Christopher Ingraham of the Washington Post reported this morning on the results of a search for media reports of instances of toddlers shooting people, and the numbers aren’t good. According to his findings, American toddlers average roughly one shooting per week in 2015.

It is good that children are learning to use guns early in life.

More from another article on toddlers shooting people in 2015:

These numbers are probably an undercount. There are likely instances of toddlers shooting people that result in minor injuries and no media coverage. And there are probably many more cases where a little kid inadvertently shoots a gun and doesn't hit anyone, resulting in little more than a scared kid and (hopefully) chastened parents.

Notably, these numbers don't include cases where toddlers are shot, intentionally or otherwise, by older children or adults. Dozens of preschoolers are killed in acts of homicide each year, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. But I haven't included those figures here.

So the one a week figure does not include the above.

Uh-huh.  Bet you took care of that "robber."

Follow-Up to the Tombstone "Gun Fight"

http://www.rawstory.com/2015/10/gunfail-...-tourists/

Police said Carter arrived late to the event and failed to have his gun properly inspected, and investigators determined he fired five live rounds from the cylinder and had one remaining in the weapon.

Officials insisted the shootings were an isolated incident and assured visitors that all safety protocols would be enforced before gunfight re-enactments on Allen Street.

So, no.  All safety protocols were NOT followed which is the problem with guns.  It only takes once!
