MAMAS, DON'T LET YOUR BABIES GROW UP

Heidi Prescott puts it best: "We have minimum ages for driving, voting, and drinking because we recognize that children don't have the emotional maturity to engage in those activities safely. Why should we think that children are able to make split-second decisions about firing a long-range, high-powered rifle under circumstances that have their adrenaline pumping? It's insane."

13-year-old Michael Lynn Russell was killed by a gunshot wound to the back of the head late last month. "We still don't know what happened. It was an accident," said his mother of Michael's tragic bird hunting trip with an 11-year-old cousin at a ranch in Texas.
