""The family did everything right in terms of defending the child," Baskfield said. "They used rocks and sticks and screamed at the cat."

Why didn't Dad just pull out his handgun and shoot the animal? Certainly no responsible parent would be walking his child without being properly armed would he?

Oh, Colorado, ........ never mind

That was my first thought also. Along with the bear attack the other day where that child was killed. No one had a gun???? Out in the wilderness with no protection?

I hope some parents learn from this.

Huh? Colorado is shall-issue. OTOH, these folk were from D.C. visiting their college son. Sticks and stones I guess.
