AMERICA'S GUN CULTURE

Regarding "A Stolen Gun and a Lost Life" (March 2):

After the tragic shooting in Michigan by a 6-year-old boy, the chief
prosecutor for Genesee County was quoted as saying that the boy "obviously
is the victim of the drug culture in a home that is in chaos." Rather, he
and the girl he killed are victims of America's gun culture.
