Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - Tragic, but they still don't get it!

www.cnn.com/2006/US/01/24/md.child.shot.ap/index.html

This story is tragic wrt the end result.  However, the media needs to realize that guns don't just "go off"!  The headline on the front page read, "Gun discharges at daycare, girl shot".  Yeah, it just "discharged" itself.  One of these days, I'll give up on the media.  Until then, I'll continue to torture myself.

The gun couldn't have "just gone off", the boy was only playing with it.

"The day care provider there did an excellent job of keeping the children safe and secure and calm," she said.
