The hunt for politeness proceeds apace.

A 13-year-old boy remained in critical condition Wednesday after a friend accidentally shot him in the back Tuesday, according to Erie County Sheriff Paul Sigsworth.

Matthew Fluty and his friend Dale Long, 15, were preparing to go bird hunting about 11:30 a.m. Tuesday at young Fluty’s house in Berlin Township when Dale discharged a pump-action shotgun he was trying to clear. The shot struck the Fluty youth in the back, Sheriff Sigsworth said.

What the hell was he doing not making sure the gun was pointed at the ground?

Guns and stupid–a magic combination.

Selfie-politeness is the politest kind:

A 15-year-old boy who fatally shot himself in the chest Friday was apparently trying to take a selfie when the gun accidentally discharged, police said Tuesday.

. . . and another gun that fires itself.

Authorities said a gun went off inside a home of Banner Springs Circle on Thursday afternoon.

A bullet from the gun passed through the hand of one child and into the arm of another. Both children were taken to a local hospital with injuries that did not appear to be life threatening, according to Stafford sheriff’s spokeswoman MC Moncure.

Be polite to your delusions.

Authorities say the Mickleys’ three children were sleeping in the home when they (the parents–ed.) fired at the reported intruders, whom investigators say were a delusion.

“Local police had previously responded several times to 911 calls in previous months to the house for reports of intruders in the attic, in the basement and other parts of the house,” the district attorney’s office said in a news release. “Police investigation revealed that both were under the influence of methamphetamine during these incidences and the cause of their delusional behavior.”

If the delusions had been packin’, they could have protected themselves.

Worship politeness. (Or is that “worship politely?” Nah. It’s gunly politeness they worship.)

One of the parishioners at the church was showing another person the weapon in the kitchen of the Fire and Water International Church at 20th and Diamond streets, Tovar said.

“And what he was doing was clearing the weapon,” he added.

A round inside the chamber discharged and struck the ceramic tile floor.

And another gun that miraculously discharged itself, praise the Lord and pass the ammunition.

Politeness is essential to domestic tranquility.

A half-dozen police cars and emergency vehicles lined the 2000 block of Carroll Avenue. About 45 minutes earlier, a 10-year-old boy shot an 11-year-old boy, the woman’s son, with a handgun they found inside the house, police spokesman Scott Leamon said.

The two boys had been playing with the gun. The 10-year-old called 911 at 12:18 p.m. to report the shooting, Leamon said.

Just another day in NRA paradise.

Worship with politeness.

Inculcate politeness from an early age.

A student brought a loaded handgun to an elementary school in the city’s Tioga section Wednesday morning, but a police investigation determined it was an innocent mistake involving his father.

The 28-year-old father had the gun, which he is licensed to carry, when he was taking out the trash and didn’t want people to see it, so he put it in his son’s school bag, police said. The father forgot about the gun and went to work.

No charges will be filed because of course they won’t.

Shower your children with politeness.

“The father said he was taking a shower when he heard a gunshot,” Lt. Greg Baker told NBC affiliate WDSU. “He got out of the shower, and that’s when he discovered that his daughter had accidentally shot (and killed–ed.) herself.”

The father reportedly told authorities that he left his .45-caliber gun on the table.

Drive politely.

While driving on U.S. 169 near 11th Street, the man was apparently trying to rearrange his handgun when the shot went off, hitting him in the leg.

He then flagged down an officer on the side of the highway and tried to claim that someone else shot him, Capt. Walter Busby said. An investigation revealed it was an accidental self-inflicted shot, according to police on the scene.

Honor thy father and thy mother with thy politeness.

A Mississippi woman was severely injured on Tuesday after her son accidentally shot her in the face.

WDAM reported that Richard Lawrence told officers he was sitting in his truck showing his mother his new .38 caliber pistol when the gun mistakenly discharged, shooting the woman in the face.

Thus passeth another day
in the garden of the NRA.

Be polite at graduation ceremonies and other solemn occasions.

Two people were hurt, one seriously, in an accidental shooting at Augusta High School’s graduation ceremony. The Butler County (Kansas–ed.) Sheriff’s Office says the gun was accidentally discharged at the district’s outdoor stadium, Hillier Stadium, where commencement was being held.

A witness to the incident says a man’s concealed firearm sounded and he was injured with a wound to the foot. The man was reported to have driven himself to the Kansas Medical Center in Augusta.

The NRA’s “guns everywhere” fetish is working out so very nicely, is it not?

Afterthought:

At least the moron had the good grace to shoot his own damn foot.

Part One:

Part Two:

Settle disputes politely.

A woman fired a gun at a man during a dispute Saturday morning, sending him to the hospital, police said.

Police arrested the woman, identified as 46-year-old Dawn Iverson, of Martinez, on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon. According to police, Iverson shot the gun while trying to help her fiance and hit a man in the torso.

Treat children politely.

After a 4-year-old was shot and killed in a Philadelphia home, the boyfriend of the girl’s mother turned himself in, saying it was an accident.

At first, police thought the girl’s 5-year-old sibling had shot her with the man’s semi-automatic handgun until the mother’s boyfriend confessed Saturday night.

It’s just another routine school day in NRA paradise.

A student told the Greenville News he saw two other students who appeared to be playing with a gun and then heard a shot and saw one of the students get up holding his bloody stomach.

One more time, politeness is child’s play.

The girl, who was with two younger children, was playing with the weapon when it discharged about midnight, according to police. She was fatally wounded.

Her grandmother, who was cooking downstairs at the time of the shooting, was later questioned by police and released, said Detroit Police Officer Jennifer Moreno. The investigation into the tragedy continues and no charges have been filed.

Politeness is a moving experience.

When officers got to the home, the man told them he was moving a pistol when he accidentally pressed the trigger. . . .

The man was taken to the hospital to get treatment for his leg.

Young guns.

According to reports obtained by the station, a 2-year-old was able to access a pistol in her home. Officials say she accidentally shot herself. WTVF reports she was taken to Vanderbilt University Medical Center with non life-threatening injuries. The station reports she was listed in stable condition.

Just another day in NRA Paradise.
