    Three-year-old girl shoots herself!

    Yes only in the US

    http://news.msn.co.nz/article/102542...wii-controller


    No surprise really as on the news the other day how the gun lobbyist want to be able to wear sidearms all the time where ever they are and Starbucks coffee shops etc supporting it...

    One fucked up country if you ask me, they have brought this on themselves...

    Don't get me wrong is sad indeed, pointless death because they think guns protect them?

    Let me get this straight. The parents of this girl let her play Wii with a pistol shaped controller, then they leave a loaded pistol on a coffee table where she can easily reach it, and her mother is sitting just a few feet away when the girl shoots herself in the abdomen?

    That is stupidity beyond comprehension...

    where opinion holds more weight than fact.

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.

    Stupid AND suspect!

    The questions have to be asked.....
    Can a three year old possibly fire a .380 caliber pistol - I have no idea about guns.
    Is there a Wii game where you shoot yourself? If anything Mum should've been shot if the three year old was in fact mimicking a Wii game.
    No body move... I dropped my brain

    Welcome to America

To appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know that even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded

    But you have to aim the gun at the TV to play Wii?

    You could question that couldn't you Stirts.. just sit there and watch, life insurance?? dont know if they would pay out but some people will try anything... yes a 3yr could fire the gun.

    Your right would of been justice if mum or dad got shot instead.

    There mentality with guns is crazy.

    Yeah - because confusing a gun with a Wii controller is the only thing you have to worry about when leaving a loaded gun around on the dining table.

    I assume that the founding fathers couldn't possibly believe that they would have people that stupid when drawing up the constitution.

    Perhaps that was the dad's master plan that literally backfired - does Nintendo have a game called Shoot Couch Potato Mommy?

    The 2,500,000 americans who's use of a firearm prevented themselves becoming the victim of a crime last year would disagree with you.

    So would the residents of the 21 US states with crime rates much much lower than ours.

    Oops, yes indeed.

    Perhaps mommy was just a little stoned? Oh well, lesson learned ay!

    I think it's funny that people do stupid shit like that. It used to bother me, but now I just remember it's not my problem.

    I see another American trying to put a lawsuit over a big company.

    Question: If the gun was loaded and was ready to be used (meaning cocked), what the fuck kind of a dad would put a loaded and cocked gun on the table? Surely 3 year old couldn't have cocked it it. Nor the Wii don't teach how to cock a gun.


    If you can make it on Kiwibiker you can make it anywhere.

    Yeah, its stupid to leave firearms around like that. But us dumb kiwis dont even have the right to carry one of carvers dildoes in self defence. We run around saying "gee its lucky we arent like america...".

    But actually we might be luckier if we were.
