  As a followup to a hit film "stop of my baby will shoot"
  Coming to a theater near you this summer.
  Rated R.
context: Why do people not understand that you put  your damn gun in a place that a kid can’t get into. >
  
  Because "I grew up around guns and so did my kid and my kid knows it's not a toy"
  ^^ every gun owner with unsecured firearms and children under the same roof. >
  
  I don't have children and the shit is still secured. The only time I ever saw a gun when I was a kid was when it was in pieces being cleaned.
  These people are beyond unsafe. >
  
  Beyond unsafe and actually dangerous, yes.
  People who leave their guns unlocked are unfit to own firearms. >
  
  But... but... if I lock it in a safe properly with a trigger lock, and the ammo stored in a separate location how can I ever live out my wildest fantasy of shooting a home invader and literally creaming every pair of underwear I own?? >
  
  Whoa, those are the guys from Live PD, they still have the show under a different name now?
  And those are terrible parents, kids are so good at finding things, goes to show how poorly secured that gun was. >
  
  It's called on patrol live now, and it's on reelz >
  
  Cheesus H. Crust people are stupid. It is not that hard to store a gun out of reach of a small child or at least get one where the trigger pull is too heavy for a small child.
  Also when the cops called the dad he lied that he didn’t have a gun even though there was security footage of his baby having one in the apartment stairwell. What an asshole! >
  
  If we make gun owners responsible for the crime due to negligence, might be a lot less people wanting to own a gun and a lot more people who do, be more responsible about how they are stored. >
  
  Well, the father of this child got arrested for his actions leading to the child having the gun. The fact that the law prohibited his negligence (although I am not sure what statute he violated in this case) didn’t stop him. >
  
  While this case is a child wondering around with a gun, my point was more so for other cases. Like the kid that shot a teacher or the kid that gets his dads gun and shoots yo a school.  
  If these laws were put into place, more care may be taken when storing your gun securely. >
  
  The people you want to heed this law won’t. Because they don’t think it could happen to them and their child. If they thought it would happen to them, they’d put the gun away safely, regardless of a law being in place or not. >
  
  Yeah, some people won't follow the . So what's the point in having laws, since they just get broken. I mean, every criminal figures they won't get caught.  why have any laws, when it won't stop all crime. >
  
  I’m just pointing out that this won’t be a very good deterrent to the people you want to deter, you’ll just end up punishing people after the fact. I’m not saying this is a bad thing, just that it likely won’t have the effect of deterrence. >
  
  You could make the same argument for drunk driving laws. The fact is these laws will affect some peoples behavior. And if it saves even one life, is it really that much to ask. Especially when all "responsible" gun owners argue that they're already doing it. >
  
  Everytime I, as a foreigner, suggest some kind of gin (gun) control might be useful in the US, I hear a chorus cry of "I'm a responsible gun owner".
  Between this, and in the last hour seeing the clip of the woman with a handgun pressed against the back of her uber drivers seat as some kind of prank...
  Are you though? Are you all just responsible gun owners? I'm sure SOME of you are, but all of you? Evidence is suggesting otherwise. >
  
  I'm American. Its all excuses to sell guns. 98 percent of gun owners aren't proficient with them. Most of the time it's a flex. >
  
  where that comes from? why the flex? so many people unsure of themselves, why? same with giant american cars
  carry a gun does not show your bravery, it just indicates the opposite >
  
  In America, we are given so much bad shit in the news and media as a whole, most Americans l8ve in a state of engendered panic. 
  Also remember.
  The indevidual is smart, responsible. But people are dumb and unpredictable. >
  
  I do believe media and News are to blame, it seems like the major issue to be addressed. 
  Tho… why not gun control? It can be achieved in a short time. Looks like it’s a political issue at this point >
  
  The right wing would love to control the media >
  
  They do. >
  
  i think the guardian, pro publica, PBS  and some small regional publications are still holdouts >
  
  I thought the Guardian was UK? >
  
  There’s a US based division >
  
  Just watched this on On Patrol Live last night. As soon as they opened the door to look for it there was one of those old roller desks under the TV and we were like, “check the desk!”, which of course was the last place they looked, lol. >
  
  It'll also be an episode of Paw Patrol for the children to enjoy >
  
  Chase is on the case! >
  
  DCS needs to immediately remove any children from that home and find safe placement. It was pure chance that that toddler and others in the home survived this incident. 
  This should be a felony that ensures this gun owner is never again allowed to legally own a firearm. This is proof of extraordinary negligence. >
  
  Ah America.  I have stopped thinking that you will come to your senses regarding responsible gun control.  Now, I am starting to consider this a natural killer of children in your country.
  The stupid parent disease?
  Gungivitis? >
  
  Gun violence is a top killer of people under 30 in the United States and has been for decades.  Of course, when the CDC tried to study the problem they were denied funding.  By guess who. 
  Remember, one of the big selling points of guns is that having a gun is "protection".  When a study came out showing that having a gun in the home increases the likelihood that a resident of that home will be injured, well the NRA had to act. >
  
  Big GuN, of course. >
  
  Want a binky? 
  gives toddler gun >
  
  This is how you have your guns taken away folks. >
  
  This is how/why they should have their guns taken away....but alas it probably won't happen. >
  
  This wins the award for most American headline of the day. >
  
  Just another day in another Hicktown, Indiana. >
  
  As an Indiana gun owner I can assure you 99% of the people I know who own guns probably shouldn’t own guns >
  
  Jail the parent and take away his gun rights. I’m so fucking sick of this. Most gun owners, yes most in my person experience see not responsible or safe and I say this as a rural Pennsylvanian who has guns and grew up around guns all my life. The “my kid won’t touch it” mentality is so strong here. >
  
  I also heard the baby is a Republican making this especially troubling. >
  
  Not only that, but why the hell is it loaded and has one in the chamber????? >
  
  Because people are idiots >
  
  Republicans are ok with this >
  
  Just another day in America. >
  
  Americans seem so good at something I'll call lazy-stupid - I think it's why we did so well on America's Funniest Home Videos for so long.
  Like cutting down a tree without considering the tree might fall in a different direction. Balancing an expensive TV on a thin metal railing while opening a door.
  Do without thinking.
  Drive 65 mph one-handed while drinking, eating, shaving, putting on makeup, reading the newspaper. Texting.
  Buy a $600 handgun and not the $15 trigger guard.
  Life doesn't have an undo. There's no control-Z. >
  
  It’s called being irresponsible and yet having access. >
  
  Anyone truly knowledgeable in gun safety would realize that NO one should own a gun, because of how stupid the majority of owners are. We should not have to wait for tragedy to remove them. >
  
  Don’t worry. We don’t remove them after tragedy either. >
  
  The only thing that stops a bad toddler with a gun, is a good toddler with a gun.  That or giving them a turkey and cheddar cracker stackers lunchable and a fruit punch juice box, followed by a nap. >
  
  Damn I'm normally anti gun... But I feel like I need one now to defend myself from all these toddlers with glizzies >
  
  Is this really what a well trained militia looks like USA? >
  
  “Damn kid will learn the hard way not to play with my gun.” Dad, probably. >
  
  i hear you folks calling for gun control, i do - and i absolutely understand your frustration
  but this is like seeing a baby about to drink a bottle of bleach and going straight to outlawing household cleaners
  i feel like more/stricter gun laws will make life more difficult for the accountable gun owners and affect this kid's world not one iota 
  (i.e., people who care about gun laws & safety do not allow things like this to happen) >
  
  No one would suggest outlawing bleach, but over the decades household cleaners and over the counter medicines have had to improve their packaging to make it harder for small children to access the (potentially dangerous) contents.  The analogy isn't great, so I can't use it to come up with a clever way to show that more gun control is needed. >
  
  Pretty much every parent I know won’t keep strong cleaners like bleach in the house when their kids are young. We’ve had decades of education on how deadly they are, education that starts young. And any dangerous chemicals parents do have are behind lots of child safety measures… like locks. If they don’t keep those chemicals somewhere safe then CPS could get called.  Pretty much everyone admits that that kind of stuff is dangerous and would be horrified to see their friends/family/etc. being unsafe. 
  I feel like every one of these “what about x” examples only makes it obvious that there’s more that can be done about guns. >
  
  Nah there isn't a gun control problem in the US at aaaaallllll >
  
  Common. Sense. Gun. Laws. >
  
  Because it's so damn difficult to have a gun safe. >
  
  Awww, what a cute little well regulated militia! /s >
  
  how else are oue youngsters suppose to LEARN about safe fire arm handeling ?? >
  
  They can learn to do so when they’re not toddlers? >
  
  this is not what the founding fathers woukd have wanted every man woman and child READY and willing to defend our demorcracy. >
  
  The founding fathers also thought slavery was ok, I have no idea why Americans keep referring to them. >
  
  Nah man I'm just messin'.  Who the hell leaves their gun out for their kid to play with? >
  
  Yeah, let’s make jokes about guns when a 6 year old murdered their teacher last week… >
  
  I'll mock gun totin' magas whenever I want, thank you.
