        @WSJ don't give a 9 year old and Uzi to shoot. It's not hard.

        @WSJ think why a 9-year-old holding a gun in the first place.

        Wrong .@WSJ! "9-yr-old accidentally killing gun instructor w/ Uzi," should only spark the importance of ALWAYS handling #guns safely.

        @MrKeepaway @WSJ I support the 2nd Amd very much but do not think anyone under 16 should be allowed to shoot this type of gun.

        @DDeVe00 I understand your opinion. I wouldn't have a problem with someone under 16 shooting such a weapon IF it was fixed on a turret.

        @MrKeepaway I suppose that would work too. I just dont see what reason a 9 yr old has firing an uzi.

        Replying to @DDeVe00

        @DDeVe00 It is a fairly difficult weapon to control full-auto w/o proper training. I've shot an Uzi/other full autos. It's not child's play.

        @MrKeepaway Right, I wouldnt think so either (never shot one)

        @DDeVe00 Great adrenaline rush but requires practice. Real shooters go semi-auto when they want to hit a target. Full-auto is for Hollywood.
