As Florida mother Jamie Gilt was driving through Putnam County, on her way to pick up a horse, she was shot by her 4 year old son who was riding in the backseat.
The bullet pierced the front seat and hit her in the back, after the child had picked up the loaded .45 handgun and discharged it inside the vehicle. The woman told deputies about the event after they arrived at the scene.
Now here’s the kicker: Mrs Gilt, who is an avid supporter of 2nd Amendment rights, had bragged about her son’s ability to handle firearms only 24 hours earlier.
On Facebook she wrote: ”Even my 4 year old gets jacked up to target shoot with the .22″
On the social network she frequently posts pro-gun massages such as this:

In January President Obama had announced to introduce limited new regulations by executive action, since congress has so far not been able to introduce legislation that addresses America’s gun epidemic
