The Virginia mother of the 6-year-old boy accused of shooting his first grade teacher was sentenced on Friday to two years in prison for child neglect.
I, from the UK, once had a ‘conversation’ about gun control with an American on Reddit. What brought this about was the day before a 9 year old girl was killed by a stray bullet from a drive-by. One moment she was in her bedroom doing some homework, and the next she was dead.
After a lot of back and forth with him getting more flummoxed and aggressive he then said something like “If she was outside playing like a normal kid then she wouldn’t have been killed.”
Yep, he blamed her.
That was the time I realised it was a waste of everything talking about it.
