The story is on http://www.the telegramnews.com and wsaztv.com. These boys were aged 9 and 12. Almost the ages of my youngest grandsons. My heart is just broken over this tragedy. Please remember the family in your prayers and give your little ones an extra hug tonight.

Indeed. This was 2 blocks from where my family lives.

It has been a very tough day for many in Jackson, and I'm positive that all of the community is praying for the family and friends of the victims.

May The Lord be with them throughout this troubling time.

Such a tragedy! I know the pain of losing a loved one to a similar tragedy. But this is more painful in that those involved were so young. Yet the question I cannot escape is this....where did a 12 year old get access to a leathal weapon?

There were several weapons there, according to the paper, but only the revolver was loaded. It said they knew who owned the weapon, but not how the child got access to it.

I'm sure we'll find out more details as the investigation proceeds, but someone was negligent and that carries responsibility with it.

You and I have discussed our personal views on gun ownership and we disagree on a lot, but I agree with you 100% about this.
