Anger at defenders of America's Second Amendment is spreading after a New York Times report on a child bringing a gun to a Michigan daycare, with the parents reportedly facing only misdemeanour charges. Critics say the light penalty reflects a political culture that tolerates guns endangering children, while gun rights defenders see such cases as calls for excessive restrictions.
Why now: A reported case of a child with a gun at a Michigan daycare and only misdemeanour charges for the parents has reignited outrage over US gun laws.
