Frolicking gun nuts.

The hunt for politeness marches on.

‘Splain me, Lucy, why this sort of stuff is an “accident” and not “negligent homicide”?

More holster hijinks:

Brent Pipgrass, 36, was strapping a .45-caliber pistol into its holster just after 5:30 a.m. Saturday when the gun fell to the ground and fired, Pipgrass told deputies. The bullet struck Pipgrass in his lower leg.

Note how the gun fell, all on its ownsome. Heaven forbid that some real person with agency could have, like, you know, dropped it.

Play politely . . .

Dylan Harvey, 19, and Tony Roe, 23, were rolling the gun’s chamber and taking turns pointing it at each other, investigators said. Eventually, when Harvey pointed the gun at Roe, it went off. A bullet hit Roe in the chest, according to the Sheriff’s Office, but his injuries are not expected to be life-threatening. He was taken to Bayfront Health St. Petersburg, deputies said.

. . . and another gun that apparently just goes off all on its ownsome.

Being polite at the open-carry-out:

“A gentleman was eating at the Subway on Central avenue just before the shooting occurred,” said Lieutenant Detective John Stewart.

The gentleman, who was carrying a loaded semi-automatic handgun did not have a secure holster for the gun.

“As he was leaving, he bent down to pick up an aluminum can and his gun hit the ground and discharged, hitting him in the thigh,” said Stewart.

Guns and stupid go together so well.

Be polite at home.

Deputies responded and found 41-year-old Tracie Shiflet dead in a duplex home at about 6:30 a.m.

Deputies said the victim’s longterm boyfriend, 33-year-old Edison Garcia-Muniz, was at Shiflet’s house, and they were handling his gun when it went off.

According to the story, he didn’t know the gun was loaded.

They never think to check, do they?

Be polite to yourself.

Deputies responded to a rural Argusville home just before 5:00 p.m. on December 7 . Deputies found 38-year-old Robert Hanson with a gunshot wound. Hanson was taken to a local hospital for treatment.

The investigation determined Hanson’s injury was caused by a self-inflicted, accidental discharge of a firearm.

Gun nut paradise approacheth apace.

Keep politeness in your sights.

Party politely.

Four people who were associated with a party bus in downtown Minneapolis were shot at 2:30 a.m. Saturday.

Their wounds are not life-threatening, Minneapolis police spokesman John Elder said. The shooting occurred near the Minneapolis Central Library by the intersection of Hennepin Ave and N. 3rd Street.

The police have no idea (as my father would have said) “who shot John.”

Study politeness.

If it walks like a deer and quacks like a dee–oh, wait.

Another unload of politeness:

The Lubbock Independent School district tells KCBD-TV parents were notified Sunday about the death of Jackson Roberts. Childress police say a 14-year-old boy thought he was playing with an unloaded gun on Friday and accidentally shot the Lubbock boy in the left shoulder.

There’s no politeness like highly trained politeness.

McMahan was exiting his police cruiser when he accidentally shot himself with his personal firearm, according to DeBusk.

McMahan was accompanied by another officer, and the pair were getting ready to work an extra job at a construction site, DeBusk said. The second officer radioed for help and provided immediate medical care to McMahan, DeBusk said.

Politeness promotes relationships.

A SWAT team tried to negotiate with the man, finally entering the home around 7:30 a.m. The team found the man inside dead from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound, said the Attorney General’s office. No law enforcement officials fired any weapons during the incident, authorities said.

Investigators believe the man killed his girlfriend before killing himself at his Hutchinson Street home, about half a mile away.

This relationship, for example, can now never be severed.

Play politely.

Per Elmer Tanner of the Navarro County Sheriff’s Office, the boy was shot in the face by another child with a 22-caliber rifle.

Another child marked by the ammosexuality fetish . . . .
