    Terribly sad. I wont spend my time monday-morning quarterbacking. Sad all around.
    I don't make the rules. I just think them up and write them down.

    Someone screwed up, I've never shot an UZI full auto, I can't imagine letting a 9 yr old do it. Too sad for the instructor, his family and the little girl.

    And regrettably, Vacca paid for his mistake with his life. The girl and everyone present will live with that memory for the rest of their lives.

    Some 9 year olds can drive vehicles and they are quite capable. No one learns to drive in a Formula One race car. It takes practice and having a patient, competent instructor can help when learning difficult and potentially dangerous skills.

    Putting a mini/micro Uzi into the hands of a 9 YO is extremely poor judgement on all adult parties involved.

    Already I saw an article blaming the NRA for the tragedy. These anti gun people are worse than carrion eating vultures.

    There's no upside to this tragedy.

    I can't think of a thing to say that would add to what has already been said.
