Whatever happened to “don’t transport a loaded gun”?

For that matter, whatever happened to “engage the safety”?

Or “don’t point the gun at anyone, including yourself”?

Cleanliness is next to politeness.

The man told police he had accidentally shot his friend as he was cleaning the weapon, the report noted. A witness also told police she was hanging out in a bedroom as the man was cleaning the handgun.

“He advised that he was cleaning the gun and removed the magazine. He advised he then checked the magazine and did not see a bullet inside,” the report noted. “He then advised he pulled the trigger so that he could disengage the slide to remove it. He advised that once he pulled the trigger, the gun went off.”

The story also mentions that he was so caught up in fondling his portable penis cleaning the gun that he did not realize the woman was shot until he heard her screams.

Be polite to the children in your neighborhood.

Respect the politeness.

Cousins who witnessed the shooting said one of them brought a legally purchased gun to the party – where attendees had been drinking – to “show it off,” according to Bellevue police reports.
