Yeah, and every iPod should come with an electronic lock, so that only the owner can type in the combination and use the device. Every parent should set up and use this function. If the kid had known he wouldn't be able to use the iPod he wouldn't have reached for it. The mother was clearly negligent.Quote:

If you conceal your iPod, your everyday hard working mugger won't know who to mug.Quote:

Hmmm wonder if that's built in obsolescence?Quote:

Three year old shoots and wounds mother. "Police said the toddler somehow got a hold of the gun ..." Many guns today have no external safeties. The excuse is that when defending yourself from a bad guy with a gun, it takes precious time to undo the safety and fire the weapon. So many people who carry their weapons with them use no external safety and keep a round in the chamber. Manufacturers say modern firearms have "internal safeties"; i.e. triggers that toddlers can't pull and recessed firing pins that won't discharge the round in the chamber if the gun is dropped or otherwise suffers a physical shock. The police officer (Capt. Dale Engle) looking into this particular case in Florida disagrees: "Engle also added that is is a "myth" that a small child is not strong enough to pull the trigger of a gun."

This toddler shot both his parents, with one shot! I say, this is a future president of the NRA. Anyway, this is an argument against having a gun to protect one's family.

The thing that can stop a bad toddler with a gun is a good toddler with a gun.
Yeap, let's see more of this. These are good kids, ready to take out the baddies in their neighbourhood.
