American boy, four, accidentally shoots gun-loving mom


MIAMI: A four-year-old boy accidentally shot his mother in the back, leaving her – a passionate pro-gun advocate – badly wounded and facing possible charges, Florida officials said Wednesday.

Staunch gun advocate Jamie Gilt, 31, who just a day earlier had boasted online about her toddler's shooting prowess, was cruising down a major thoroughfare with her son in the back when he shot her on Tuesday. The bullet went through the seat cushion.
