Death

Kid accidentally kills himself with automatic weapon at gun show. Meanwhile, gun owners are stocking up just in case the Apocalype comes, or the election of Obama brings civil unrest, or the financial meltdown destroys society.

The more I see of that kind of thing, the more I think: you know what? We ought to do it. Give the gun owners something they've been clamoring about for years. What they secretly believe Obama's going to do. Let's do it. Let's take all the guns. Hand guns, shot guns, rifles, machine guns. Grab 'em all. Let people prove their right to have lethal weapons in their possession before they get them back. And the more powerful the weapon, the bigger the requirement of proof.

To which the NRA promptly responds Second Amendment!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We're real sorry... but, you know, there was a firearms instructor right there! And even the kid's father! The instructor just made a ....little mistake. And did we mention the Second Amendment?

And another kid is dead.
