My friend (not affiliated with those that let him fire it) saw the kid. He was jumping up and down asking his dad where the UZI was.

Evidentially, he really wanted to fire it.

Seeing how excited he was my friend even walked up to the kid and said "Be careful son, they aren't toys."

I'm not blaming the kid. My friend said he could see it coming and felt horrible when he found out. The father didn't do his job in this case. Neither did the person who gave him the gun.

My 2 cents...which in this economy isn't much.
