An old story, but it shows that Fox News feels it's okay to lie about the news:

Another kids shoots parent after finding a gun in purse
http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2014/12/31/the-inside-story-of-how-an-idaho-toddler-shot-his-mom-at-wal-mart/
The argument that the mother loved guns and was comfortable around them is a fallacy. Who cares whether she hated or loves them? It's like using the argument that you love junk food as an excuse for eating a terrible diet. How about a law requiring guns to be safely secured when kids are around?
