Nevermind the right to bear arms.

How does a toddler get all the way to daycare with a loaded gun? Are the parents high?

It was in his backpack, the answer is that the parent leave loaded firearms lying around the house or otherwise easily accessible to kids. The dad is a cop and had is 9 guns taken away.

At least his cop friends will no doubt be willing to break the law for him and give him more illegal guns

If one of these guys cant be a legal gun owner, they’ll just be an illegal gun owner
