Ok, this is now officially the most insane story of all the shootings by kids that have happened lately.

"A proud, pro-gun mom was accidentally shot by her 4-year-old son — just a day after the Second Amendment-loving woman boasted about her tot’s shooting kills.

The Florida boy found the loaded weapon in mom Jamie Gilt’s car Tuesday and shot her as they cruised down a Putnam County road, officials said. The 31-year-old mother survived the mid-drive attack and is in stable condition.

“Even my 4 year old gets jacked up to target shoot with the .22,” Gilt wrote on Facebook Monday during a fiery online debate about guns as a means of self-defense. The mom maintained she has the right to shoot anyone who threatens her and her family — and she's teaching her kids to do the same.

On top of her personal page, the vocal gun activist runs "Jamie Gilt for Gun Sense," a Facebook page dedicated to spouting her passionate pro-gun opinions."

Just another responsible gun owner. If only they would raise these "thugs" right. Teach em bout using them hands instead of always being so quick to grab a strap.

This actually seems like it should be an article on The Onion, not a real event.

So she teaches her 4 y/o learns to shoot. Then the kid shoots her?

Defies imagination.

I don't have a problem with guns. I have a problem with idiots of which this mom appears to be. That kid should have been strapped into a car seat in the back seat. There should not have been a gun within easy reach. Fortunately, for her it doesn't qualify for a Darwin Award.
