3-Month-Old Baby Shoots Texas Man In The Face
This totally never happens except when it does. After another apparent accidental shooting, Houston police are investigating. This time, the culprit is a 3-month-old baby. You see, the baby had access to his binkie, a blankie and of course, a gun.
Sanders was napping on the couch in the living room of his apartment, according to the police report, when the gun stashed in his pocket slipped out and onto the floor.
What could go wrong?
Well, when the man awoke, he found his firearm in the hands of the three-month-old boy, HPD Homicide Division Sergeant R. Rodriguez and W. Gilbert said.
You know how babies are. Oh look, a shiny thing!
Sanders tried to grab the gun from the infant, which caused the gun to fire, resulting in the man being shot in the face.
The baby was not injured during the incident, according to the police report.
Sanders was transported to a local hospital where he is listed in critical condition. It’s not clear as to whether Sanders is the3-month-old shooter’s father or not.
On the plus side: At least the baby didn’t put the gun in its mouth. Babies tend to put everything in their mouths, like shiny things, for example.
As far as I know, the gun survived the incident and is ready for the next. I’m sure the NRA would support gun owners teaching little babies proper gun safety. “More guns” is totally the answer.

Call me skeptical. How do we know that the jackass did not accidentally shoot himself and blame the kid, or that he actually intended for the baby to find and kill himself with the gun? There are too many questions: was there another adult watching the child while he was napping, and if not, why take a “nap” at that time?

This is one of Gohmert’s ‘Terror babies’ rigged to explode. BOOM!

I’ll bet a 3 month old boy can be tried as an adult in Texas.

3 YEAR* old, not 3 month old. A little more plausible (though still pretty stupid on the guy’s part)

so in other words, the father shot HIMSELF in the face… a 3-month old’s hands aren’t anywhere near big or coordinated enough to grip a pistol, and nowhere near strong enough to keep the father from easily taking it away. this is just a case of stupid, which naturally the spit-spraying lefties will latch onto as another anecdotal bit to try to bolster their lame-ass arguments for banning guns…

If you’re going to post that much, why not tell us what the true story was?

Ah, apparently 3-year old, not 3-month old, child. Totally makes the difference for pushing a radical anti-gun agenda.
Or, perhaps, it’s not actually part of some mysterious conspiracy that’s somehow failed to manipulate every other news source, but instead a stupid mistake.

Guns killed 32,163 in the USA in 2011, plus another 70,000 Americans shot each year. Study-Up Ebola Paranoids: A) Guns were used in 11,078 homicides in the U.S. in 2010, comprising almost 35% of all gun deaths, and over 68% of all homicides.Via WISQARS Injury Mortality Reports,
B) People of all age groups are significantly more likely to die from unintentional firearm injuries when they live in states with more guns, relative to states with fewer guns. On average, states with the highest gun levels had nine times the rate of unintentional firearms deaths compared to states with the lowest gun levels.(Firearm Availability and Unintentional Firearm Deaths, 33 Accident Analysis & Prevention 477 July 2001)
C) The U.S. General Accounting Office has estimated that 31% of unintentional deaths caused by firearms might be prevented by the addition of two devices: a child-proof safety lock (8%) and a loading indicator (23%)-DOJ/CDC Wiskers. http://smartgunlaws.org/gun-deaths-and-injuries-statistics/#footnote_5_5975

trust the liberal fools who wrote this tripe to get it wrong… this garbage isn’t even close to the true story. but all the drooling left-wing gun-haters will pounce all over it and repeat it as gospel because it suits their purposes. yeah, the guy shouldn’t have gone to sleep with a gun in his pocket, i get that. but there’s no excuse for lying in an article like this for the sole purpose of pushing your radical anti-gun agenda, then again, i’ve found that’s really what the antoi-gun crowd does, since the truth is most often the exact opposite of what they claim…

Heck in Helen Ga a gun nut was playing with his gun and shot a tourist across the street. You see in Gawga anyone can get a gun, just most don’t have a clue how to safely use one.
