    It remained unclear how the shooter obtained the weapon.

    id put money on the fact that teen did not buy an AR. The human killing remains the responsibility of the purchaser.

    had the gift been to another adult, you might have an argument.

    you should in absolutely no capacity be able to gift an AR to a 14 year old and claim no responsibility.

      But that’s why the father is being prosecuted. Because he ultimately gifted the firearm to his teenager. Your original statement was about unsecured firearms. I was pointing out this is not a case of “teenager breaks into house and gets a gun.” This is about a father letting their 14 year old have a gun.
