Staunch gun advocate Jamie Gilt, 31, who just a day earlier had boasted online about her toddler’s shooting prowess, was cruising down a highway with her son in the back when he shot her on Tuesday. The bullet went through the seat cushion. “Our investigation has revealed that the firearm was legally owned by the victim and the child came to possess the firearm without the victim’s knowledge," Putnam County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement. Gilt, who is in a stable condition, was so badly wounded that police have been unable to talk to her from her hospital bed. But they warned that she could face police action after they work out exactly how the boy — who was unharmed and is now with relatives — got his hands on the gun. ...:zip:

The only way to stop a bad toddler with a gun is with a good toddler with a gun.
The only way to stop a bad toddler with a gun is with a good toddler with a gun.Yes, let's arm all toddlers with firearms. They have a right to defend themselves.
Only an idiot would leave a loaded gun sitting on the back seat of a car. Leaving it in reach of a four year old is criminally stupid. This woman is not fit for parenthood.
The only way to stop a bad toddler with a gun is with a good toddler with a gun.I used to work with toddlers who had behavioral/neurological/developmental difficulties. Good thing I got out before they started packing. (Although they, otherwise, tend to be quite charming in a primordial Trumpish sort of way).
Only an idiot would leave a loaded gun sitting on the back seat of a car. Leaving it in reach of a four year old is criminally stupid. This woman is not fit for parenthood.Nor for owning or carrying guns. Lois

I'm not sure what the gun laws are in Florida, but I sure hope a judge orders her to give up her guns and never use another.

Unamerikan drivel - give up my guns - because of a wee lil oversight - NEEVA!
We’ll make sure the NRA is there to tell that commie judge what’s wat :-S
It’s all fun and games until an eye gets put out.

You enable; you are responsible.
Guns don’t kill people, toddlers with criminally irresponsible parents kill people.
How oblivious do you have to be to reality to drive around with an unsecured weapon in the same car with a four year old let alone let them shoot it for bragging rights.
It’s also very lucky this four year old wasn’t seriously injured or killed in a car accident after he shot the driver.
