Otherwise they wouldn’t be so stupid as to use an obviously fake/toy gun.
Incidentally, no orange tip.

As usual… Can’t find the link, so I wonder if she’s a protester or a homeowner…
The dumb is strong with me today… I think I am fighting a bug. Link now provided in the post.
This is the problem with some people rushing out to buy a gun in preparation for an emergency: they don’t know how to use it.
I can appreciate the sentiment, the world around them is going to hell and them want to protect themselves. But knowing nothing about guns and then getting one for a crisis is a recipe for accidents.
It’s not just guns, mind you. Growing up in Miami, we saw exactly the same thing after every hurricane with chainsaws and generators. Some white collar yuppie, buys a chain saw or generator, has no idea how to use it safely, and then tries to take care of the tree that fell in his back yard and cuts off a leg, or tries to restore power to his house and electrocutes himself.
I am all for gun ownership, as well as chainsaw, generator, or tool ownership. But learn to use the tools you need under more controlled circumstances. Then when the poop his the fan, you care capable with them.
The woman was “waving the gun around.” Boyfriend ducked and he hit the car in front of him. Woman shot herself during the impact according to boyfriend.
How many of the 4 rules were violated?
Now that I read the actual article… Jebuz! The stupid is strong with that woman.
Now, I don’t go around wishing gun owners dead because I have compassion and a sense of decency. But if someone is in a moving car, waiving around a loaded handgun, with their finger on the trigger… I am not going to be surprised if they have a lethal incident.
C’mon, the boyfriend was at least smart enough to try and duck out of the way of Bitch Cassidy, less he get shot.
Gun ownership is a right, but not being a freaking moron is the responsibility that comes with it.
“Accidental” my sweet Aunt Fanny’s fanny! Like a fool she was waving the thing around with her finger on the trigger. Sure, she didn’t mean to shoot herself in the head – probably didn’t mean to shoot the gun at all. But I’ll bet she wouldn’t have been waving it around if she had just bought a butcher knife.
Yee-ha, yippie-ki-yay mother-humper! Lookee at me, I gots a gat!
Then we have CSGV’s/addictinginfo.org’s picture of a lethal weapon. Sure hope they can prove it was purchased before 1968.
stay safe.
