Firearms

I believe that if you have weapons (registered, of course) in your home you should lock them up. It is completely irresponsible that the below story happened:

ECRU, Miss. (AP) - An 8-year-old boy who died in an accidental shooting will be buried Wednesday in north Mississippi.

Authorities say Russell McWhirter was at his grandfather’s house in Ecru when he found a pistol between the mattresses of a bed. The gun went off and injured the boy’s head.
