CarolS : These kids are getting guns from the streets. I am going to assume these kids are enforcers for a gang as this whole encounter resulted in a so called transaction aka buying or selling illegal items.

West-Tex : I read about this just last night. Kingwood has their juvenile problems and we have ours. How sad is this? Where did they get a gun?

West-Tex : They will get him at school, if not before then.

Wanderer : Gang enforcers? Sounds like a drug deal or gaming system/shoe transaction gone bad.

West-Tex :
1ontheroadagain : Do you want to know why because many businesses and chain stores post that stupid trespass warning called 3006 and 3007 at their establishments and thus their customers are forced to leave their guns in the car and that is how guns are stolen like other items of value. These crooks can break into cars in seconds. I never disarm myself and leave my gun unsecured in my vehicle and if I travel with long guns to go hunting or shooting competitions I do not lose visibility of the car so I can see who nearby.

Wanderer : They mainly leave them in their cars overnight, at their own homes.
MrsT : This may be the case with a small group but I see more stolen from parking lots to stores and malls.
