Yet another oxymoronic “responsible gun owner” thought the gun was unloaded.

Guns and stupid, guns and stupid.
They go together like love and Cupid.
Let me tell you brother,
You can’t have one without the other.

Another oxymoronic “responsible gun owner” exposes a child to politeness.

According to police, the child was in the care of a babysitter who allegedly left two handguns unsecured in her home while watching the child. Green, who works as a social worker and is a graduate from the University of Michigan, was given a $75,000 cash surety bond.

“Investigation has revealed that a Smith & Wesson 9mm handgun was unsafely and unsecurely stored under a pillow, on a bed, inside the residence while the children were present,” said Warren police’s public information officer, John Gajewski, during a press conference on Monday.

The child is currently in stable condition at a hospital and is expected to recover.

We are a broken society.

. . . and, as we all know, politeness is a family value.

Yet another oxymoronic “responsible gun owner” feels compelled to flaunt his portable phallus in public.

“It appears the suspect drove through Mocksville firing a handgun and then traveled I-40 eastbound from the Hwy. 601 exit,” (Davie County, N. C., Sheriff J.D.–edl) Hartman reported. “The suspect then fired rounds and struck a driver and truck.”

Another case of courtesy on the concrete.

We are a society of stupid.

Gunnutery does not repeat itself, but it often rhymes.*

Another child . . . .

A 13-year-old is in the hospital in serious condition after he was accidentally shot by a friend. The case happened over the weekend in Port Orange.

It all started with a sleepover that turned into a nightmare for the Green family. “Police told us his friend and him were sitting across from each other, his friend was cocking a gun back and forth,” said Jennifer Green, mother of Nathaniel Green. “The gun went off and the bullet was lodged in his spine.”

. . . and another gun that (reputedly) fired itself.

Yet more random acts of politeness.

Self-politeness is the politest kind.

Afterthought:

These “responsible gun owners” need to learn not to play with their portable phalluses.

Addendum:

And, in more news of the polite . . . .

Yet another oxymoronic “responsible gun owner” performs a random act of politeness.

A high school cheer coach in Texas was killed after being struck by a stray bullet while attending a conference, according to authorities.

Celebrate birthdays with politeness.

Continuing in a similar vein, it appears that another “responsible gun owner” has succumbed to the “pull of the portable phallus.”

An investigation revealed a group of teenagers had been playing “ding-dong-ditch,” which means they ring people’s doorbells and run away. The teens reportedly approached 91 Waterford Rd., knocked on the door, and ran away.

“The resident of 91 Waterford Rd. later identified as 30-year-old Vincent Martin of Harrison, produced a handgun and shot at the teens numerous times, striking one victim in the right calf causing serious, but non-life-threatening injuries,” the release stated.

We are a broken society.

Another “responsible gun owner” shows off her politeness.

Police say Maria Morales, 51, was arrested under suspicion of manslaughter and negligent discharge of a firearm and was booked into the Madera County Jail.

“We have a witness that was next door that heard people laughing and seemed like they were just having a good time,” Sgt. McCombs said.

According to McCombs, Morales was showing the victim her gun while trying to detach the magazine; that’s when the firearm went off and hit the victim in the head.

Guns and stupid, guns and stupid.
They go together like love and Cupid.

You can’t have one without the other.

Yet another “responsible gun owner” exposes a child to politeness.

Officials said the boy found a gun stored in a bedroom and shot himself. His father attempted to revive him until first responders arrived, but the toddler died at the scene.

Sheriff Gerald Sticker says the gun was between the mattress and the box spring, accessible at eye level to the child. The father reportedly kept the firearm for safety reasons but did not secure it properly.

Just another day in the NRA’s Garden of Bleedin’.

Yet another oxymmoronic “responsible gun owner.”

Yet another gun that (is claimed to have) fired itself.

When deputies arrived at the home, a man related to the teen told detectives he was “handling a firearm in another room of the house when the gun accidentally fired.”

The bullet went through the wall and struck the girl, authorities said.

Emergency personnel airlifted the teen to an area hospital.

We are a society of stupid.

More courtesy on the concrete.

We are society suffering from a severe case of lead poisoning.

Police say a 4-year-old child in the home had found a loaded firearm in the basement.

“While the child was touching the firearm, it discharged causing a projectile to pass through the ceiling of the basement and through the floor of the main level and into a sibling’s foot on the main level of the home,” according to a search warrant affidavit filed in 3rd District Court.

One more time, “responsible gun owner” is an oxymoron.

Politeness was in the bag.
