In Garner, Iowa, a young boy has died after an apparently accidental shooting at a firing range.
Police say in a news release that the 10 year old, of Clear Lake, suffered a head wound Sunday afternoon from a pellet gun at the Garner shooting range.
The Garner City Administrator said Wednesday that the boy and a younger brother went to the range with their grandfather. He said exactly what occurred at the range Sunday remains unclear, but no charges are expected to be filed. |

| Not enough can be said for gun safety training. The antis say they want to promote gun safety but would block any attempt to have Eddie Eagle come in to give an assembly. Recently, 1 brother shot his other brother who just bought a new 'bullet proof vest.' Brother 1 pondered, "Wonder if it really works?" Brother 2 said, "Let's see, and shot him," resulting in death. How many layers of redundant safety did bro 2 violate? A speck of any real 'gun safety' could've prevented that. There's blood on the hands of the anti's who won't accept there's a gun culture and a need for prudent gun safety awareness. |

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
