Too many children are killed this way.

If the NRA gets it's way, it will no longer be necessary to lock up your guns as you will not be charged in these type of cases.
Also, the Florida Legislature is proposing expanding the 'Stand Your Ground Law' to make it perfectly legal to fire warning shots into the air. What a stellar idea. Can you imagine sitting at the town squares and having warning shots fired all around you?
Reading these stories makes me sick to my stomach. I have an eight year old great nephew.
Now is the time to contact your FL legislator, since their annual session begins on Tuesday. Not that it will do any good.
