He was just practicing and it was totally accidental so it is OK. (Mom gets charged though)  The 15 year olds were smoking dope and playing with the gun.

 Iowa mother was charged nearly a year after she bought her teenage son a rifle that accidentally killed his friend the very next day.

Police said 14-year-old Emma Redlinger was fatally shot in the head Feb. 28, 2015, while some teenagers handled a semiautomatic rifle at a friend’s house in Vinton, reported The Gazette.

Federal prosecutors have charged 52-year-old Robyn Merchant with one count of providing a firearm to a prohibited person.

Investigators did not provide details about the events that led to the teen’s death, but they said Merchant’s son tested positive for marijuana and admitted to smoking marijuana regularly by age 15.

Merchant admitted she knew about her son’s regular marijuana use when she gave him the Walther HK MPS 22LR semi-automatic the day before Emma was killed.
