Apparently shootings by toddlers of themselves and others are on the rise in the US. They find guns in drawers and under carseats, easily accessable.
What I really find shocking though is that only 28 states can prosecute the gun owner if a child finds such a gun and hurts themselves or others.
Also, if you have children or are babysitting, its common sense to lock away the bleach, bugspray or oven cleaner and keep them away from knives and so forth, but people are keeping loaded guns lying around everywhere? Do we really need to tell people that to baby proof their house involves locking away their guns?
