Absolutely disgusting behavior. The couple has been arrested on multiple felony charges and all of their children have been placed into protective custody.

A couple in Evansville, Indiana faces multiple charges after allegedly allowing the woman's 1-year-old daughter to play with a .40 caliber pistol and put it in her mouth.

Videos of the toddler with the weapon were discovered by police on the cellphone of Michael Barnes, 19. He was busted for allegedly trying to sell a handgun to an undercover officer on Thursday, Newser reports.

Detectives examined Barnes' cellphone and claim they discovered two videos supposedly showing a 12-month-old girl playing with what investigators believe is the same handgun found during Barnes' arrest.

According to a police report, Barnes can be heard telling the child to say "pow." At one point, the child can be seen placing the muzzle of the gun to her mouth.

At no point during the video, did the suspect take the gun away from the child, who officials initially incorrectly identified as male.

Authorities did not say if the gun was loaded.

The baby's mother, Toni Wilson, 22, was questioned about the video and detectives determined she was there at the time of filming.

She allegedly told police the weapon was just a pellet gun. The police said the weapon was a .40 caliber handgun, according to Reuters.

Wilson and Barnes also have 1-month-old twins together. All of the children were placed into emergency care, according to the Evansville Police Department.

Barnes and Wilson were both charged with child neglect, criminal recklessness with a deadly weapon, and allowing a child to possess a firearm. Barnes also faces charges for resisting law enforcement with a weapon, carrying a handgun without a permit, and carrying a handgun without a permit within 500 feet of a school.

"When we try to do all the things we do to encourage these kids to be good members of our community, and you see somebody that's working that hard against it, it just makes you wonder how many other children may be living in this type of situation and what's the outcome going to be for them, and what's the outcome going to be for our community if these things do go on," Sgt. Jason Cullum told 14news.com.

The couple remains in custody at the Vanderburgh County Jail.

OK, I think we have finally found the scenario involving a gun where everybody agrees this is wrong.

I mean I'd consider myself somewhat neutral on the issue. I am a CHL holder but I was never brought up around guns and so I don't really share the same fanaticism for gun culture or exercising my 2nd amendment rights as many other gun owners do.

However, in defense of the pro-gun faction, they've always been vehemently against irresponsible gun use.

1. All guns are always loaded.
2. Never let the muzzle cover anything you are not willing to destroy.
3. Keep your finger off the trigger until your sights are on the target.
4. Be sure of your target and what is beyond it.

I am a gun nut and fiercely defend the 2nd Amendment with my USP .45 and other pending guns... But I wish the above was actually written into law, not just a rule. This couple just violated #1 and 2.

How tragic to see this video...my fear is that this kind of irresponsible and outrageous behavior goes on in countless homes where guns are glorified and people act out their fantasies getting a sense of power from holding an instrument that could take what is most precious to us all...life.
This reminds me of the recent terrible tragedy about 2 weeks ago in Hayden Idaho, of the mom who took a loaded handgun into walmart in her purse and her two year old child reached in her purse when she turned away for a moment and shot the mom to death. What a horrific tragedy for the mom, the child, the family and everyone concerned.

The problem was that she stupidly kept her weapon in her purse, not that she had a loaded weapon. A weapon is no good if it's not loaded. And if it's no good, why carry it.

A purse is the LAST place you should ever conceal your carry.
