If a parent leaves a gun accessible and a child uses it to kill, that is not some tragic accident that should disappear into the woodwork. We treat guns like toys in this country and then act shocked when children reach for them. I do not want performative tough-on-crime theater, I want real accountability for adults who ignore basic safety and put the rest of us at risk. If the weapon came from the mother, then yes, charges are on the table.
Yes and this should not be a controversial take. You hand your kid access to a weapon and that weapon gets used to murder people at a mosque, you are not a bystander, you are a participant. The NRA has spent decades making sure there are no real consequences for exactly this kind of negligence.

Me MAGA Me Big Brain! Me actually agree with this one! Parent let kid get gun and kid do bad thing, parent must answer! Me have big IQ me know responsibility matter! But Salon only care when it fit agenda! Where Salon when Democrat city have no law no order? Silent like mouse! Also me note, if mom lock gun up proper this no happen! Me support Second Amendment but me also support LOCK UP YOUR GUNS from bad people! Common sense! Me smart like Trump!
