. . . and another oxymoronic “responsbile gun owner” performs a random act of politeness.

“That’s where the bullet hit me, in my foot. It messed up my foot. It’s like a laceration right here,” said Alastair Probre, a Chief Petty Officer in the Navy.

Probre says he was shot after the bullet came through his bedroom window around 4:45 a.m.

“We were asleep, knocked out. When I finally realized what was happening, I looked around and saw a hole in the window, a bullet on the ground and blood everywhere. I told my girl to get down because I didn’t know if they were still shooting,” Probre said.

Another child . . . .

Douglas (GA–ed.) police say a 2-year-old was injured after an “accidental self-inflicted gunshot wound,” according to a statement.

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

And another oxymoronic (emphasis on the “moronic”) “responsible gun owner” exposes a child to politeness . . . .

Police spoke to witnesses at the scene who said they saw 41-year-old Brian Siegfried handling a handgun while on the front porch of a home. At some point, Siegfried allegedly cocked the gun, put it down and walked across the street.

Siegfried also allegedly told police that he was tired of holding the gun and put it down.

During this time, four toddlers under the age of five were said to be in the direct vicinity of the handgun.

One of the children was able to pick up the gun and accidentally shoot the victim.

Whilst in the merchandise mart, show politeness to your fellow shoppers.

A Kentucky man was shot and killed at a gun store when a firearm being handled by another customer went off, according to Kentucky State Police.

The preliminary investigation indicates that a customer was viewing a gun for sale and “manipulating” it when a single round discharged, hitting another person in the store.

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.

NBC News has a wonder about the perils of politeness. Here’s the question:

Why does America keep allowing toddlers to shoot themselves?

You know my answer: Too many guns, too much stupid.

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

. . . just in case you needed more evidence that we are a broken society.

Florida Man.

It’s happened again: More politeness on the pavement.

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

Yet another instance of courtesy on the concrete.

We are a broken society.

Yet more politeness on the pavement.

When I was learning how to handle a gun, it was drilled into me to always assume a gun is loaded unless I verified for myself that it was not.

I guess this guy missed that part of the lesson.

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.

Yet another random act of politeness:

“A 3-year-old riding his tricycle, having fun with members of his family on a hot summer night, his 7-year-old big sister right by his side, and out of nowhere gunfire erupts. And the children are struck by gunfire,” Buffalo Mayor Byron Brown said.

And, in more news of “responsible gun owners” . . . .

Ask yourself, what’s the common denominator here?

Yet another ammunition acolyte displays courtesy on the concrete.

We are a broken society.

And another “responsible gun owner” confirms that phrase to be an oxymoron:

Upon entering the home, officers discovered an adult male sitting on the couch holding his three-year-old son in his lap. The child sustained an apparent gun shot wound to his left hand.

The initial investigation revealed that the child accidentally shot himself with a handgun that belonged to his father. The handgun, for which the owner has a permit, was recovered at scene.

The child may indeed have “accidentally” shot himself, being too young to understand the consequences of his actions, but, without question, the parent with gross negligence allowed the child to access the portable phallus.

We are a broken society.

Yet more random acts of politeness.

For Pete’s sake, a BB gun is still a gun and should be treated as such. Indeed, its ammunition is for all practical purposes little musket balls.

We are a society of stupid.

Yet another random act of politeness.

Good thing he didn’t have a bump-stock.

Self-politeness is the politest kind.

A person reportedly shot himself accidentally at a popular ice cream shop in Whitehall Township, Lehigh County Saturday evening.

That’s according to a worker at King Kone off MacArthur Road.

The worker tells 69 News a gun accidentally went off while holstered. The man carrying the gun was hit in the leg, according to the worker.
