<h3 class="title">The mean streets of Sesame Street</h3>

<p>So depressing, a <a href="http://www.kansascity.com/mld/kansascity/news/nation/11132502.htm" target="_blank">two year old was shot by his four year old</a> brother in Houston, Texas recently.</p>

<p>I'm all about the Bill of Rights and stuff, but c'mon people, at least put a trigger lock on your guns when you aren't home.  There's no point in leaving it unlocked if you aren't there to operate it.  What, your four year old gonna keep it real?  Looks like he did, with his brother, you dolts.</p>

<p>His mother claims it was the one day that it wasn't locked up/secured....sucks that people have to learn that way, but all it takes is one of those little "oops" type mistakes and you're getting more than what you bargained for.</p>
