The boom in supplying guns to the public has reached the crazies peak possible with a two-year old becoming the slayer of his mother. 'A woman in the US state of Idaho has been killed after her two-year-old son accidentally shot her with a gun he found when reaching into her handbag. The woman, named by the local sheriff's office as Veronica J Rutledge, 29, was shot in a Wal-Mart in Hayden, a town in Idaho's northern panhandle. She had been shopping with several children at the time, a spokesman for the office said.' (BBC News, 31 December) There is no limit to the sale of weapons despite the social cost. RD
