And yet another gun that fired itself . . . .

One of the man’s roommates was unloading a gun in the same room as the man and it went off, hitting the man in the face, Suazo said. It appeared to be accidental, and the roommate who accidentally shot the man remained at the scene and was being cooperative with police, he added.

Be polite to the neighborhood children.

The Butler boy and a group of kids were playing with a ball outside of a home when it went into a neighbor’s yard on accident. Police said that neighbor, Scott Spahn, grabbed a gun and pointed it at the boys.

The boy said he and his friends play in the street and on the sidewalk all the time, but this time, he said, Spahn wouldn’t give them the ball back and threatened them with a revolver.

The look of politeness
Is in your eyes.
The look that bandages
Cannot disguise . . . .

Seal your friendship with politeness.

A Louisiana man was arrested for allegedly shooting and killing his childhood friend with the victim’s own gun after he picked up the pistol to admire it during a party, authorities said.

(snip)

Though the gun was loaded, it did not have a bullet in the chamber when Lemley was given it, but he pulled its slide back and simultaneously squeezed its trigger, cops said witnesses told them.

One of the guests reportedly said he tried warning Lemley that he had loaded a bullet into the firearm’s chamber, but it was already too late.

Be polite to your suite mates.

Sheriff’s deputies said they reported to a call regarding an accidental shooting, and found a victim suffering gunshot wounds at the home. A man reportedly heard a noise and went outside to investigate, carrying his pistol. When he returned inside, the man mistook his roommate for an intruder and shot him, according to Capt. David Agee of the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office.

He pointed a gun at a man, he pulled the trigger, he hit his target.

And the story goes on that “witnesses” are calling this “accidental.”

Self-politeness is the politest kind.

At the residence, witnesses informed police that the woman had been attempting to disassemble the gun, not knowing it was loaded. The gun then reportedly discharged by accident, and she was struck in the head.

Even if you are disassembling a gun, you aren’t supposed to point the business end at anyone.

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