Old T you have a point. How long before the parties "Lawyer Up"?
All parties have to accept that it was a case of the instructor failing to do his job and keep control of the MINI UZI!!!
It is the parents responsibility to do what is best for their children and if and I repeat IF this 9 YO girl has had some gun training and could show that she was capable then I would let her shoot if she wanted if not they should have refused and stuck to a single action firearm. The Mini Uzi is the smallest caliber firearm they have.
But and a big But: The instructor should have evaluated her and made recommendations if he was not comfortable with her capability to operate the unit...
If my kids had an interest in shooting and they had some gun education, both classroom and hands on and wanted to fire an UZI, I would let them... I wouldn't take them to a circus like the Last Stop but to a professional trainer who would have taught her the weapon, then how to fire single rounds, then 5 rounds, then 10, and then 20 until she mastered the characteristics of the gun. Not by some guy who works in a tourist trap and gets paid buy how fast he gets you in and out and how many bullets you shoot.
The roadside circus (AKA Last stop) let's people shoot .50cal. at 700 rounds a minute raining with no formal training and yes kids are a regular there as these videos clearly show.
