Re: Texas shooting: 4 dead, 1 injured at toddler's birthday party Wrong choice of words, it would be hard pressed to find persons attending a toddlers birthday party ending in a mass shooting.
Re: Texas shooting: 4 dead, 1 injured at toddler's birthday party I'm guessing but I hope that is your attempt at humour. The families were distant relatives and considering one family had four dead and one injured, they were not the ones with weapons.
Re: Texas shooting: 4 dead, 1 injured at toddler's birthday party Is that so? I've not witnessed toddlers on the loose with knives or read about toddlers on the loose with knives. it is very hard for them to reach drawers and surfaces at two or three but I guess I'll warn folks to watch out for knife wielding toddlers that could be "Rosemary's Baby"............they might be the death of you.

It's against the law for toddlers to carry a gun but what law prevents them from carrying a knife or other weapons?
Toddlers can be tricky. One minute they are running around squealing and giggling and the next thing you know you've been stabbed with a jackknife.
You've got to be kidding.
