I have no problem with charging the father and the guy who gave the father the gun. The father should be punished severely for allowing his child to gain access to a loaded weapon. The guy who gave the felon a gun should also be punished severely for giving or selling his gun to the felon.
I own several guns and I own, and handle, them responsibly. It is the actions of these type people that encourages and give creditability to the gun grabbing politicians!

I'm with you as long as the guy gave it to a 'KNOWN' felon. If it was given/sold to an individual who hid or disavowed his past then it would be different.

I only say that because there will come a time when some prosecutor will fail to note that difference, and it will be used to remove our right to sell a gun individual to individual.
