Sure, guns are a problem, and more guns are a worse problem. But the other big problem (as shown by the story from Detroit) is the ever-increasing stupidity level.

That 11-year-old probably had a male parent who was planted in front of a TV or video game at a young age. By age, twelve that boy was probably on the streets, out with buddies, or playing soccer, and never had the chance to learn about younger kids. In short, his grasp of real life and real children is pretty slim.

If we don't do something about the stupidity level, kids are going to keep getting killed, one way or another.
