What's your stake in making light of it?

Well noone asked you to be fair, but perhaps you have an opinion?

I stated my opinion and you did also already. Now you want to argue. Move on.

Oh, don't be such a grumpy kitty!

O'rly?

I refer to your previous post in which you asked me to provide a response to something you already knew the answer to, given that my opinion on the subject was clear and unambiguous.

And you say I want to argue?

It seems to me that you don't want to take responsibility for your own words.

I looked it up. A group of calves is still called a herd.

dad would have faired better if he'd been raising cattle.

Personally I would like to see the father with a felony conviction (thus never legally being able to own a firearm), and based upon his remorse parole. As the sheriff said (for a truly remorseful parent) no punishment the legal system can hand out would compare to self recrimination.

No, Dad would have been thinned out by now if he raising calf herds.

I'd agree with both of those sentiments. I can't imagine what the family is going through but there does seem to be some case for negligence.

there should be some sort of stupid test you have to pass before being able to own a gun. sorry 2nd amendment, but folks are lacking common sense these days.

least he wouldn't have to worry about the calves opening the glove box.

Children that age get into everything. It's unwise to leave them alone even for a few moments.
