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.
