Related: About this forumFather tells 6-year-old with 3 years of gun training to lie after shooting sister in face
According to the Jackson Country Chronicle, authorities in Jackson said this week that 48-year-old father Fred B. Maphis had told his son to say that the shotgun had accidentally gone off when he dropped it. But the son later admitted that the father instructed him to lie because he had pointed the gun at the girl and pulled the trigger.
A truly unique father. A man with a moral compass........... Satire!

The only thing that stops a 6 year old with a gun is a 4 year old with a gun. (n/t)

A 3-year-old boy from Northwest Indiana is dead after "playing a game" with his mother's boyfriend who apparently forgot he was holding a loaded gun, prosecutors say.
A child and the defendant were playing a game. A child pointed his finger at the defendant like he was shooting gun playing a game and he pointed a gun out and shot the boy, LaPorte County Prosecutor Bob Szilagyi told CBS Chicago.
The incident happened around 3:30 p.m. Sunday
