    Why do you need to trust a 13 year old with a gun?

        Irresponsible parents are a fact of life. Please stop deflecting from the problem that has a very simple solution to the one that isn’t going away ever. Keep the fucking guns away from children…

        13 yesr olds usually aren’t held criminally responsible for their actions because they don’t understand the value of life or consequences of their actions etc. so maybe they should’nt be given guns to take on the bus or wherever. But Im Australian. Never seen a gun or heard a shooting.

        Ok that solves everything then. He shouldn’t have done that. Problem solved. /s

        The question wasn’t about trust. It was: “Why does he have access to a gun?”

            “Was that wrong? Should I have not done that? I tell you I gotta plead ignorance on this thing because if anyone had said anything to me at all when I first started here that that sort of thing was frowned upon, you know, cause I’ve worked ridden in a lot of offices busses and I tell you people do that all the time.”
