Question

Hello, only a question I have for tomorrow please;

Answer 1

Answer:

Its the fathers fault because Abbott said that the boy’s father had borrowed the gun from a friend to protect their household, but he’s now under investigation for failing to properly secure the firearm and putting others’ lives at risk.

Tragic accidents involving children and unsecured firearms are not uncommon. According to the most recently available data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 329 children between the ages of 0 and 9 were killed in accidental shootings from 2010 to 2017 (up from 253 in the previous seven-year period from 2003 to 2010). Overall, 4,181 Americans (children and adults) died from accidental shootings between 2010 and 2017.

Explanation:

On July 1, Washington’s new “Secure Gun Storage” law goes into effect, which states a gun owner can be held criminally responsible if their gun gets into the wrong hands or if a crime is committed with the gun. At least 11 other states have a law mandating some degree of secure firearm storage.
