So how did this tragic event happen then? There are several factors in handgun safety, especially if children may come into contact with the weapon.
Since the make and model of handgun has not been officially released, there is some speculation as to the actual cause due to differences in firearms.
Preventing unintentional discharge outside of the home can be minimized by following some simple steps. |

This is the most poorly written and poorly edited news article I have seen in a long time.
The headline is laughable and the first paragraph continues the joke. After that it just gets worse.
Apparently the Falun Gong people are more interested in their problems with China than in publishing competent journalism in English. |

A more cogent opening premise would be, "can kids be safe around guns ? ", which removes the false "deux ex machina" aspect of the argument. And all of the "gun culture" knows age-appropiate gun training is the only "safe " way. Sadly, it seems, the lady was using an "off body carry" device she received as a Christmas present.
OTOH, this is a salutary lesson for every parent. Never underestimate the knowledge/strength/ability of our toddlers when presented with challenges. |
