Can we all say idiot with a capital I

I don't even know where to start with what is wrong with this video. Just watch it. These people need serious counselling. Quick someone take this kid away from them before something horrible happens.

Here's The Video

Ok....that is just not right!
I would hope that it was supposed to be an exercise in gun safety, but, he's just a tad young don't you think? OY! What some people will do....

Oh geez, so what happens when the kid stumbles upon the gun in a few days when he's not being watched closely, and thinks hey! I can do this! and either hurts himself or someone else.

People are just plain stupid. Especially to sit there with a video camera and film it? "My Son's First Gun Shots"

I can't say much more than flippin' 'eck

I just hope for all of the family's sake that there was a part we didn't see, where the dad told his son never to use a gun without him there. Otherwise that could end up as a nasty tale

Im not suprised. I've seen something on tv about this kind of thing, An american police officer was bragging about how his 5 year old son can shoot from his gun without him helping.. Seriously some people dont deserve children when they can be that thick.

My dad took me out to shoot for the first time when I was very, very little. He did with all of his kids. He gave us lots of severe warnings, kept his guns very secure, and made sure we knew what guns were capable of. We couldn't even point tiny, unrealistic toy guns at people or pets, not even squirt guns, unlike most kids. Because of having this from an early age, several of us encountered unsecured guns outisde our homes when we were very young, and knew how to act. I remember the first time my friend found her fathers gun, which had been hidden from her. We were in kindergarten or first grade. She'd never been allowed to see it or been talked to about it, so the first thing she did was try to look down the barrel to see if it was loaded. I think that is much more dangerous, much worse, and much more irresponsible parenting. If you choose to have firearms in your home, I think making sure your kids are aware of them and know how to safely handle them and not ignorant of them are just as important as locking them up, locking the ammo up seperately, or any other precaution. Little kids seem to be drawn to guns (probably because they know they aren't allowed to have them). So, if you are going to ever have guns in your house, I wholeheartedly support taking your children to the range with you to quell the attraction.
