Expose children to politeness (emphasis added).

A 4-year-old boy is dead after accidentally shooting himself in the head Thursday afternoon, police have confirmed.

(snip)

Captain Kevin Riley of the Parma Police Department says that it appears the boy gained possession of a gun that was inside the car and appears to have accidentally shot himself with it. Police believe that the shooting was an accident and no foul play is suspected.

“Gained possession of a gun” seems a somewhat convoluted way of saying “some jerk negligently left an unsecured firearm lying about.”

A polite society is a clean society.

An Apple Valley father apparently shot his 2-year-old daughter late Wednesday night when his gun discharged in what investigators described as a cleaning accident.

(snip)

Investigators believe the girl’s father was downstairs cleaning a gun when it was negligently discharged and struck the girl in an upstairs bedroom.

Aside:

I doubt seriously that the gun “negligently discharged” itself.

Furrfu.

Give politeness priority to promote proper parenting.

According to charging papers in court, the boy sustained the burns after his father shot him with “flaming pellets” from a fireworks gun.

The Morning New Tribune reported the boy’s mother took the child to a Tacoma hospital for the injuries July 6th. She told police that she’d heard a bang from a gun while she was in the shower and when she got out, the child had been injured and was screaming.

Practice random acts of politeness.

According to the girl’s father, the family was playing soccer at the park when the teenager was shot in the leg. The father declined to do an on-camera interview with KATV, but described the injury saying that a crossbow arrow that appears to be for deer hunting pierced the front of her leg, went through her shin and poked out through the back of her leg. The girl’s brother was standing right next to her when she was shot, according to the father.

If the young lady had been packing, no doubt this would not have happened.

Don’t hog the politeness.

The coroner said he believes the shooter was using a thermal detection scope and mistook the victim for a hog, however this information has not yet been confirmed by investigators.

Coroner Charlie Boseman identified the victim as 40-year-old Kenneth Jason Young of Starr. Boseman said a couple was out hunting when they spotted something, which Boseman said was later determined to be the victim, on all fours crawling around through the thermal scope, and then shot.

Recreate politely.

According to Pasco Police, the woman, and the man who shot her, both have concealed pistol licenses. They were planning on shooting recreationally later that day. While they were both in the car, the man was reassembling the victim’s pistol when it went off, shooting him through the hand. The bullet then went through the woman’s right arm, and then her chest, causing severe internal injuries.

According to the story, the authorities have once again forgotten their vocabularly words and confused “accidentally” with “negligently.”
