Father accidentally shoots 3-year-old son A father accidentally shot his 3-year-old son Friday afternoon at a home near 24th Street and Broadway Road.

The child was transported to the hospital, and the father is being interviewed by Phoenix police.
Phoenix police have not yet determined whether they will be pressing charges.

Sounds fishy to me. What are the chances of the firearm falling out of his pocket, discharging, and just happens to be pointing at the kid. I'd say there is more to this story than what the guy is telling the police.
In order to rally people, governments need enemies. They want us to be afraid, to hate, so we will rally behind them. And if they don't have a real enemy, they'll invent one in order to mobilize us.
Many unanswered questions. This will definitely be very bad for gun owners.This guy should face some serious consequences for his gross negligence.
