9 and already one confirmed kill under her belt.

That's really sad. Watching the video is heart breaking. The gun was being respected and handled in a safe manner. It doesn't matter what my personal opinion is on guns at this moment. Condolences to the families. Poor little girl too.

Well, that's debatable. They were following basic gun safety rules, but they didn't check to see whether the 9 year old could handle recoil. They should have checked that.

When I first saw this video I was like... why did he go to Full Auto after she fired only ONE shot, the next logical step would be Burst fire. That girl was completely unprepared for any kind of recoil. What makes me sad is that this isn't even the first time I've heard of such an incident. I remember last year or a few years ago, a Kid a little younger than her, killed him self with the same damn gun also at one of these gun show events.

Just heard that there probably won't be any charges filed. If I was the parents or the owners of the range I'd feel pretty relieved right now. Though I do agree that no charges are warranted here. The traumatization is probably punishment enough.

This case shows once more that USA need to have a gun regulation law, it can´t be possible that to have a gun remains a constitutional right.

Traumatization for the victim (and their family) sometimes isn't enough, like the driver who sued the family of the teen biker she killed. Thankfully, that's not the case here.

You probably didn't watch the video. This has nothing to do with gun regulation. This was a Public event that Gun ranges all across the country have. The problem is the instructor more or less seemed to be showing off, and underestimated the Recoil on the gun. Just because He as a full grown adult can handle the Recoil on an Uzi doesn't mean a 9 year old child can. He used Very poor judgement when switching her from Single fire to full auto after she fired only ONE round.

I know this was an "accident" (I agree with you when you say the isntructor underestimated the recoil), but people should reflex about a 9 years old girl using a gun, it should not be legal under any circumstances.

Personally, what I think we should put a age limit and not ban them totally because that's just stupid to ban them totally. I think the age limit would be good around 16-18 or something close to that. Because honestly, 9 year olds should not be given a car, or anything like that why should they have a gun?

I from a country where hunting is very common, and I do agree that there should be an age limit on guns, or at least the instructor should have to have a license so that he knows what he's doing. Though I don't see why automatic weapons couldn't be banned completely, what do you guys do with full auto guns? Enlighten me!

Tragedies happen. This was a freak accident that thankfully rarely happens. Punishing the thousands of law abiding citizens for the recklessness of a few people doesn't make sense to me.
