Let me start off by saying that the mom in this story survived the shooting and is going to be OK. And now we can make fun of her.
Jamie Gilt, a 31-year-old Florida mom, probably loves one other thing as much as she loves her son. That thing? Guns. Gilt loves those two things so much that just one day before being shot in the back by her toddler son, Gilt was bragging about how her son is already hyped up to shoot a gun. Yee-haw.
And then the gods of irony decided to mess with Gilt because while she was driving down a Putnam County road, her son came across a loaded gun Gilt had left in the car; a .45 caliber handgun. And yeah, he used it on her.
Deputies spotted Gilt in the middle of the road with a bullet wound. She was quickly rushed to the hospital where she is currently in stable condition. Fortunately, the child was not hurt. Unfortunately, he’s had to grow up with an idiot for a mom.
The child is now in the care of other family members, and the Department of Children and Families is investigating the case.
On top of her personal Facebook account, this gun-loving mom also runs the “Jamie Gilt For Gun Sense” Facebook page, a page that seems to have been taken down for the utter lack of sense Gilt showcased (probably).
Deputies say no charges will be file until they can speak with Gilt on the matter.
I guess we should let Gilt have the last word:
Actually, Kenley had the better last word.
