Well at least it would be pink! I noticed Cricket Rifles for sale at Wal Mart. They range in price from $89.95 to $197.00. I had never heard of a cricket rifle until reading these are great starting rifles for children.I was reading the comment section in Walmart where a concerned Dad said his 2 year old little girl wanted a pink rifle.He was wondering if she
might be a little too young to own a real rifle.He was told 5 years old was the right age.
Rifle sales are soaring and why not let the kids in on the fun!I can"t debate with any gun owner on facts I guess. In the not too distant past, a police officer left his gun in the van
alone with his 3 year old son and 7 year old daughter. Of course the 3 year old shot the 7
year old to death.The policeman father said he was sorry,never went to jail,and sees no reason why he can"t keep being a policeman.
Mother Jones writes that 197 children under age 12 have died because of stupidity and violence in the past 3 years in America.A 9 month old was among the dead.
I can fill pages up with names with dead children. Careless parents leave guns for kids to find and kill their brothers and sisters with.In states like North Carolina,you can take your gun anywhere. In Idaho If your an elected official,you can have a gun even if you
did plead guilty to attempted rape.
Now we go to Wal Mart to buy our little children rifles that could kill them.Any attempt
to put a curb on Gun sales will quickly be stopped by the N.R.A. Even killing first graders allowed no background checks on gun buyers. My son with mental issues can buy a gun.
My diary is just a snapshot of a moment of time in early December 2013.A time when
death and violence of people however young they many be, draws yawns.
