Many of the comments in this thread are sickening. A child was blatantly murdered and the headline is bullshit, there is no mention of firearm safety training whatsoever. She literally pressed a firearm against a child's chest and pulled the trigger after she abused them for not doing something young children should have to do.
If you can somehow screech out "muh conservatives shouldn't have gunz!" then you didn't even read this shit or you are dickbrained. Nothing about this woman speaks conservative and some of it is contrary to that claim if anything.
Conservatives are the reason she was allowed to have guns.
Will you liberals shut the fuck up about the fucking conservatives for a second? Not everything is about mUh CoNsErVaTiVeS and politics. Who is to say she legally obtained the firearm huh? The article doesn't even say what kind of firearm it is, for all we know it could be a 3d printed ghost gun?
I swear every bit of news I see, liberals use it as an excuse to bitch about conservatives. A child died by first degree murder from a caretaker because of the awful CPS that we have, guns are not the focal point here buddy.
Your comment is so absurd that I thought it was satirical at first.
Half the posts here are satirical as well. A deranged individual gets custody of children not hers and everyone screeches "gUnZ!" like a bag of cats. What do you honestly think would have happened had she not had a gun? Tell me!
Do you honestly think the situation where she didn't have a gun would have been better than the situation where the kids never went to a home where the custodians were clearly not fit to have custody of CPS children?
