“An Armed Society Is a Polite Society” 0
More polite play:
The boys’ mother tells KETV-TV (http://bit.ly/1JgITzj ) a makeshift bullet that discharged from a homemade musket sliced through a plastic sled the young boy was using as a shield. She says the incident was accidental.
According to the story linked at the link, the mother says that the kids had been playing with this toy the previous evening and it had not fired. She is certain that there was no intent, that, indeed, it was an accident.
Given that shooting yourself with a gun in a church can be considered accidental, I wonder what elevates this to a felony?
