No matter what your opinion is on gun control, it’s pretty clear that firearms and children do not mix. In 2015 alone, on average, toddlers shot someone accidentally once per week.
Despite the numerous statistics that prove how dangerous it is to have young children around guns, Jamie Gilt, a pro-gun activist from Florida and mom, was set on raising her son around these deadly guns and explained in a post to Facebook: “my right to protect my child with my gun trumps your fear of my gun.”
In fact, Gilt was so passionate about guns that she was already teaching her 4-year-old son how to use guns, and how to shoot.
However, when driving together one day, her son picked up her .45 caliber handgun, and accidentally shot Gilt in the back as she was driving.

Gilt managed to flag down a police officer to get help, and while waiting for the ambulance, she had to explain that her son had been the one to pull the trigger.
Detectives have yet to figure out how the 4-year-old got the gun in the first place, and may charge her if she failed to keep her son away from the firearm.
Watch the entire video below to find out more about how this 4-year-old accidentally shot his own mother while he was sitting in the back seat.
