All of America should be appalled by the situation in which a nine-year-old girl accidentally shot a firearms instructor in the head with an Uzi, which, Fio has been told, is an entirely inappropriate weapon for a nine-year-old. Arms enthusiasts are--uh--up in arms defending the instructor, of course, but Fiorella is more concerned about the child.
How does a fourth-grader cope with having killed someone? How will she be treated by other children? Her family will have to move, perhaps assume another name, and she will need extensive therapy.
Fio hopes her parents will sue the gun range and the NRA and even the estate of the stupid man who, in effect, committed suicide by putting the gun in her nine-year-old hand.
