If the dad throws his kid on a 900cc crotch rocket, you bet I do.
ETA: I'm not saying the dad should suffer any more i.e. criminal charges, however going after the organizers or the club is wrong IMO.
We disagree on one point: If the organizers specifically advertised this event to "random Joe's off the street," then don't they have an obligation to assume that those people are not experienced enough to handle NFA guns (or any guns for that matter) on their own? And if so, are they not obligated, at least morally if not legally, to provide the appropriate instruction and supervision?
I agree that if this wasn't a club-sponsored event then it wasn't the club's fault. I also agree that the father owns a huge part of the blame. I just don't see how those of us who are responsible can hold blameless the organizers who (it seems) screwed the pooch on so many levels.... (And in doing so screwed us at the same time.)
