Playing with Guns

I found this kid and his buddy playing with guns (toy guns). The buddy pretended to shoot him and this boy pretended to play dead. It was all so funny to them that the boy playing dead couldn’t conceal his glee. However, it gave me the chills. The whole scene felt strangely surreal and foreboding. According to the National Gang Crime Research Center, they average Latin King in Chicago first fires a real gun by age 11 and OWNS a real gun by age 12.
