A 5-year old girl visiting with friends in eastern Idaho died after being shot by another 5-year old in what police say is an accidental shooting.

I have little doubt that the child who shot and killed her playmate didn't do it on purpose.
But that doesn't change the result that we're looking at.
Whoever owns that gun and failed to secure it needs to pay a heavy price for the death of this 5-year old which resulted from that carelessness.
This to me is a good example of why gun laws need to be consistent on a federal level. So sad
