"The community would find it shocking..."

... Really? This is genuinely shocking? That a kid who probably hasn't seen the genuine impact of a gun and it's implications to human life but rather a culture that makes guns seem cool, especially considering his father owns 25 guns... you're shocked that this child thought it would be cool to show other kids the gun? In a society of clout?

I'm disappointed that the parents were disappointed. They should be disappointed in themselves as this was their responsibility. Grrrrr.

I'm glad the kid is doing well at their new school though. :)
