There are so many things wrong with this article I don't know where to start.

"The gun was brought into the store to protect property and ended up losing the life of someone who had a lot to accomplish," she said. "Violence brings violence. It doesn't solve anything. ... I encourage people with stores to install cameras to protect employees."

Hmm, do they have cameras with laser guided machine guns in them now?
 
That's a tough story.

It was obvious the guy had a fascination for guns since they'd found that 1 of the 2 rounds in the "clip" (nothing like a little bit of investigating your gun facts before writing an article) had been chambered after his shifts. So he'd been playing with it. But there's no way in hell a loaded gun should have been left with people that didn't have proper training.

I don't care who you are or what your story is. If you leave a loaded gun with somebody who has no training, it's your fault if they kill themselves "accidentally."

The kid was stupid to play with it knowing it was loaded, but the owner was even more stupid for leaving him with it.
