Tragic indeed.  I for the life of me don't understand how a man even points the muzzle of a firearm at his child's head, much less pull the trigger.  Her life is over, his life is destroyed.
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

Regardless of who you are or how long you have handled guns in your life. You have to practice safe gun handling every moment.
it only takes a second for this to happen.

It seems to happen a lot with semi autos. Folks take the mag out and forget about the chambered round.

Sad.

Another life taken before it's even really started. Very tragic.

So many wrong things happened to make this possible. Very sad.

Can't even imagine, and don't know what to say. My daughters are 9 and 11. Wish I hadn't read this, but it is a good reminder.

I hear that. My girl is 8. The thought just kills me. On another note, I am angry with this man. He clearly had no place teaching gun safety let alone even possessing a gun.
