Yes, with a flashlight? Guess we need to ban those too!
It is a sad situation for the grandmother who lost her life this way. However it really isn't a simple answer. If the weapon belonged to the grandmother and she owned it legally she had every right to have it for protection. I doubt it crossed her mind that the enemy was within though since she was trying to care for this kid even in her old age. She probably knew if she ever needed it to protect them both she would need it where it was accessible because a gun locked up in a safe doesn't protect anyone.
IMO
