#GunSense – 5 Year Old Shoots 9 Month Old Baby Brother in the Head

home shooting

And once again, another killing, sanctioned and approved by the no-regulations-more-guns NRA and the foot soldiers of the NRA, Republican party.

The mother called 911 to say her 5-year-old boy shot his baby brother with a paintball gun.

But it wasn’t a paintball gun. It was a .22-caliber Magnum revolver. And the 9-month-old boy didn’t survive.

Authorities are trying to figure out what led to Monday’s shooting in Elmo, in the northwest corner of Missouri.

“At this point foul play is not suspected, and it appears at this time that the shooting was accidental,” the Nodaway County Sheriff’s Office said.

Sheriff Darren White told CNN affiliate KCTV that the baby was in a playpen when his brother found the gun lying around a bed.

When emergency crews arrived, they found the infant had been shot in the head. The child was flown to Children’s Mercy Hospital in Kansas City, Missouri, where he was pronounced dead, the station reported.

I'm just tired of the lies and nonsense coming from the GOP, so this is my little contribution to combat the nonsense!
