I read about that.  Utterly tragic.

Too bad it wasn't a squirt gun.  Wasn't that the house where they found 14 
loaded and unloaded guns unlocked?

Maybe a squirtgun.

Right here in Houston, a family bought a cute little kiddie rifle for their 
5-year-old.  He shot his 2-year-old sister dead with it.

IMHO, toddlers really don't need to be armed.

What kind of a gun would be appropriate for a three-year-old, and 
transitions into three types?  I'm really just curious, as I've never heard 
of such a thing.

Gabe,
I saw the subject line of this email, and had to chime in before I even read 
your email. However, after reading your email, I 1,000,000% agree with 
everything you say. My ex-wife, and, current fiancé have both been going 
users and I have taken an interest in how they work, and what you can do 
with them. When I tell other blind individuals this information, most of 
them shy away and tell me that I am insane. But I asked them why? And again 
we always go back to the point that you bring up below, the inequality 
factor, and how every blind person wants to be equal to his or her site 
appears but if it comes to dangerous things such as guns, they often shy 
away from them. My three-year-old son for his third birthday, received a gun 
that is one that transitions into three different types. Most say it's a 
totally right? No, this gun could kill someone if it was used that way, but 
we raise Nicholas to understand that Duntert pools not toys.
