It happened on their son's birthday, police say. According to the court documents, the couple went to bed shortly after midnight after singing happy birthday to Clayton.

Clayton told investigators that he had a good day with his parents. "When his dad told him he needed to go to bed, he got mad at him," the documents stated.

OK, but did the kid get his Nintendo back? I need closure!

I'd tell Dad to keep his guns locked up and away from 11 year olds.

But. Dad is dead.

And the Kid now has to live with what he has done for the rest of his life.

There will be no closure.

An estimated 40.7% of adults in Pennsylvania have guns in their homes.

Pennsylvania Firearm Licenses in 2021: 348,167

In an average year, 1,806 people die and 4,020 are wounded by guns in the Keystone State. Those wounded must pay for their medical bills if they are under- or uninsured.

Nationally, every eleven minutes someone in the US is killed with a firearm, either by an assailant, by accident, or by committing suicide.

Who needs ISIS, al-Qaida, the Taliban, or Russia to kill Americans every year when we do a fine job of it for them?

But he did! In his gun safe, where he also sometimes stored the Nintendo.

So the kid looked for his Nintendo there after getting the key from Dad's drawer. Didn't find the Nintendo, but did find the gun.

Which I guess goes to show that "when the only tool you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail."

lol

You serious?

I did not see that in the story. Guess I stopped reading when all the ads covered the screen.

That would be quite ironic.
