NO, they shouldn't. What good would my guns do my teenagers if someone broke in the house while I was going to the store?

If the teenager had stabbed 10 people with a steak knife would you hold the parents accountable?

X2!


If my kids were ever raped, murdered, or attacked while at home and they couldn't defend themselves with my guns, I would hate myself forever. Parents are NOT to blame. Guns are NOT to blame. That's the problem with society today. People like the OP want to pin the blame where it doesn't belong. This is on the kid without a shadow of a doubt, in my mind.

I hope that's sarcasm. It can happen anywhere at anytime. Most likely, you won't expect it. That's why most of us around here carry firearms.

It's a shame to know that if someone ever broke into your house, that your kids would be left defenseless ( if you have any? ). I can see locking up extremely valuable weapons, those that you collect and don't fire. But your home defense weapons should be accessible to everyone, otherwise, it's not much of a defense. There are quite a few news stories out there, where a kid or teen uses their parents weapons to defend themselves or their families. I even remember one where a little girl used her pink .22 to scare off intruders.
The parents should have taught the teen better, and of course the teen should have been more responsible, and smarter, but they shouldn't be responsible for having weapons accessible.
Of course, there are exceptions, like if you have toddlers, you want to keep them away.
If they are old enough to understand responsible firearm handling, they are old enough to have one accessible to them.

ETA: I never touched my mother's or my grandfathers firearms unless I was told to, like to retrieve it for cleaning, or retrieve it to take outside to shoot. If you don't trust your kids to do the same, that's a parenting problem.

Well, the juvenile proly wasn't suppose to carry a FA or prolly was illegally carrying it (not sure about the Kansas laws.), it could be that it was taken without the parent's consent. This is a responsibility issue, hence the blame partly towards the parents.

The juvies were on a concert, not a hunting area or a shooting event so no reason to carry one.

Seriously Twerk Fest? "To “twerk,” according to the Urban Dictionary, is “to work one’s body, as in dancing, especially the rear end.”

Google Twerk Fest and watch one of the you tube videos.

3 am a bunch rowdy teens. what do you expect?
Oh ya and based on the video and urban dictionary definition I'm guessing the majority in attendance were are a certain racial group. Dare I say... Black.

That's how a lot of people are killed, assuming there is no reason to carry.

Hence I said it's a responsibility issue. There's no reason for these juvies to carry considering they don't have one, in addition to carrying it illegally.

I have no problem people using a FA for defensive purposes and this incident didn't sound like one.

A FA? Fully automatic or firearm? So, just because YOU think we don't have a reason to carry a firearm, means I should leave it at home? If I'm headed to Walmart, I should leave it at home? If I'm going to Circle Centre Mall, where it is primarily teenage, wannabe gangbangers, I should leave it at home? Where do I have a reason to carry one? At the range? While hunting? When expecting to go ape **** and shoot people? Please send me the pamphlet that you have that tells when I have a reason to carry one.

I meant firearm for FA. Are you a Juvie? Are you a responsible gun onwer? If yes and no, I don't see a reason that you should carry one. Also, see my above post.

I just searched this but then again, I don't know that laws of that state.

What Are the Gun Laws in Kansas?

Or at least not to an “All Gold Everything/March Madness Twerk Fest”. I hate those.

I'm afraid this is just another example of the lack of family values promoted by the effing Handout Liberals and embraced by many in the "Underprivileged" Community.
The "dance" was a celebration of wanton sexuality promoted by Hip Hop artists around the Country.
I hope they're proud of their "Disciples" and the misery they bring to their own people.
In the meantime we legitimate firearms owners will pay the price for this stupidity with the further erosion of our Rights.

Didn't see anything in the article about teens that got the guns from their parents. Article said not much known about or who the shooter(s) were.

But still dovetails with the events at Castleton Square mall earlier.

I practically have total control over the home gun stash. Many of those are handguns. I'm 17. I'll never go on a shooting rampage. Please don't blame the parents. Think about how often this happens and realize milions of teens didn't take dad's shotgun and blow someone away (off their balcony, or through their door). HOWEVER, look at recent news about how a teen was home alone/babysitting a sibling, someone broke in, and the teen neutralized the threat. That scenario happens more than it seems. I've personally had to use an SKS to deter someone. If it was locked up, what might've happened to me?

 

[Hookeye]

I blame the parents, I bet neither explained explicitly that shooting people at the upcoming concert was wrong.
