Rear children with politeness.

The fatal gunshot wound to the head was accidentally self-inflicted, according to the Madison County sheriff’s office. The child, whose name wasn’t released, was inside the family’s parked vehicle at a home on Berry Creek Drive in Harvest when the shooting happened Sunday afternoon. A parent found the child and the authorities were notified.

Be polite to your fiends.

Once again, politeness is child’s play.

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

Rear your children with politeness.

A 3-year-old boy suffered a gunshot wound to his head after police say the boy found a gun in the house and played with it while his parents were still in bed.

Amazingly, however, Murray police detective Kenny Bass said Thursday morning that the boy’s injury is not considered to be life-threatening . . . .

Politeness is the key.

Cedartown Police Chief Jamie Newsome reported that around 6:40 p.m., business owner Todd Williams was pulling his keys out of his pocket in the parking lot of Zorba’s on North Main Street when the gun he had in his pocket went off accidentally.

The single round ricocheted off his knee and went through his foot.

Join the queue for politeness.

Spokane Police Spokesperson John O’Brien said it was reported that around 3:30 p.m. a man was in line at the Supreme Bean on North Hamilton Street and East Illinois Avenue when he accidentally shot himself.

Of course, the NRA will probably say that, had he been packing, this wouldn’t have happene–oh, wait.

The writer of the second letter to the editor of my local rag at this link, absolutely nails it.

Some of the other letters at the link unwittingly make his case.

Be polite to your playmate.

In the Great White North, the hunt for politeness continues.

The three men were out hunting when one of them got separated from the others. Police said one of the men shot at what he thought was a rabbit and injured the 20-year-old.

One wonders, was it his fluffy white tail or his long furry ears, or are the rabbits just bigger in Canada?

Cleanliness is next to politeness.

Police say that the victim was sitting in her vehicle clearing her weapon when it was discharged, striking her in the leg. Officers applied a tourniquet to her leg until EMS could get to the scene.

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.

Once again, politeness is child’s play.

When officers arrived, they discovered a 2-year-old with a single gunshot wound.

They say the child was alert and able to communicate while being taken to the hospital. . . .

Officials say they believe a sibling was holding the gun when it went off.

Play politely.

Shortly after 8 p.m. Wednesday, officers were called to the a home located on along Highway 347 in Leonville in reference to a shooting.

When officers arrived, they found a man shot in the head inside the home. Witnesses said the man was playing with a pistol when it accidentally went off.

Werner Herzog’s Bear has a theory about the recent “gun rights” demonstration in Richmond, Virginia. He suggests that there is much more to it than the demonstrators’ affection for the mobile masculinity machines. Here’s a bit:

Today we see the militia members march in Richmond, and they claim that they did so without committing violence. Meanwhile, people affiliated with them commit atrocities like shootings in Charleston and Pittsburgh and they pretend they have nothing to do with the behavior of these “lone wolves.” It’s an old trick but it keeps working because our government and media are too lazy to press the issue.

What is it about putting a lie on a picture that somehow makes the lie more believable?

Afterthought:

This is part of why I source the QOTD.

Politeness, in your dreams . . . .

A 57-year-old Hackensack man was placing his gun on the nightstand while preparing for bed before dawn Wednesday when it went off, shooting him in the abdomen, authorities said.

. . . and yet another gun that is described as firing itself.

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.

oliteness is a family value.

A preliminary investigation by detectives found that a 36-year-old man with a concealed handgun on the small of his back was play-wrestling on a bed with his 4-year-old son.

Police said, while the two were playing, the gun fell from the father’s person and a shot was fired, striking both the father and the 4-year-old in the head.

Demonstrate politeness upon the nation’s highways.

As she got closer to the exit, an unknown driver swerved in front of her. She swerved out of the way and honked her horn at the suspect as she passed him, according to police.

The suspect then pulled in front of her and slammed on his brakes, police said. She temporarily lost control of her SUV, but was able to avoid having an accident, driving around the suspect.

But the suspect continued, pulling up next to the SUV and shooting at least three rounds into the driver’s side of the car, authorities said.

The woman’s 9-year-old daughter was shot once in her left side during the incident.

And thus passeth another day in NRA Paradise.

It is widely considered inadvisable to play with your portable explosive ego exhancement engine whilst abed.

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.

Practice random acts of politeness.

A suspected sniper has been taking shots at passing vehicles on a major highway in Eastern North Carolina, and it may have been going on for days, witnesses say.

Aside:

What’s with the “suspected sniper” phrasing?

Sniping is taking place, therefore there is a sniper.

Furrfu.
