Either way, the parents are undoubtedly responsible for buying the guns. I remember there was a thread in the Newbie Section where a parent was trying to find some information regarding airsoft for his son. THAT is proper parenting. Education and warning children of consequences.

But again, another hit to the air gun/airsoft situation.

This doesn't change the fact that these kids are obviously wreckless little punks. Sure, their parents are irresponsible. They definitely shouldn't have bought them, and they 100% definitely shouldn't let them use the guns without supervision (or at all...). But it doesn't change the fact that those kids shot at some other girl and could've done serious damage. If the parents won't teach these kids proper safety and how to not be an idiot, then the police and justice system will! (even though they clearly won't. I just wish they actually would)
