Once again, politeness is child’s play.

Speaking of a society of stupid . . . .

Expose your children to politeness at an early age.

Three-year-old Timothy Murphy, his mother and her boyfriend were in bed when a gun discharged, striking the toddler, the Bienville Parish Sheriff’s Office said.

Investigators believe the shooting was accidental and do not suspect foul play, authorities said Wednesday. Sheriff John Ballance said the gun involved in the incident had been left at the end of a bed, within the boy’s reach, according to KSLA.

One more time, “accidental” and “negligent” are not synonyms.

Practice random acts of politeness.

Yet more child’s play in the NRA’s Garden of Bleedin’.

The refrain repeats: Again politeness is child’s play.

Thus passeth another day in the NRA’s blood-soaked paradise.

Politeness is a family value.

Play politely with your pets.

Investigators say that Pleasant–who had been drinking brandy, according to a witness–picked up the Smith & Wesson gun and “turned on the laser sight and was pointing it at the floor to get a cat to chase it.”

While playing with the firearm, Pleasant discharged the weapon, striking Daniels in the right thigh. Daniels, who was standing in a doorway when hit, stood “in shock for a second and then he asked Ms. Pleasant if she had shot him,” according to the witness quoted in the complaint.

Words fail me.

Politeness once again is child’s play.

On Sunday, a 2-year-old boy in Gastonia, North Carolina, picked up a rifle and accidently shot his father inside their home.

The toddler discovered the gun on the table and began to play with it. According to the boy’s grandma, the father was sitting on the couch when his kid pulled the trigger. When the incident occurred, the toddler and his parents were apparently visiting the boy’s grandmother.

Who the heck leaves a loaded gun on a coffee table?

One of those oxymoronic “responsible gun owners,” that’s who.

Once again, we find that a polite society is a clean society.

And, once again, we are shown that “responsible gun owner” is an oxymoron.

Show your politeness to the nice TSA agent.

A Virginia Beach man was caught trying to pass a loaded gun through security at Norfolk International Airport on Thursday.

Transportation Security Administration (TSA) officers caught the man with a 9mm handgun loaded with seven bullets, including one in the chamber, at one of the airport security checkpoints on August 5.

The story goes on to say that it was the third instance of someone’s trying to pack heat in the fiendly skies in a week.

And yet another child is sacrificed on the NRA’s altar . . . .

“It was an accident,” Supt. David Brown said during a community walk on the West Side. “A visiting relative brought a gun to visit inside the home. It was in a bag. One of the young kids were playing with the guns and accidentally fired the gun, killing a small child.”

Once again, politeness becomes child’s play.

And thus passeth another day in the NRA’s Garden of Bleedin’.

A moment of stupidity leads to two lives sacrificed on the altar of gun worship.

Jesus, Mary, and Joseph.

A polite society is, as we know, a clean society.

Afterthought:

If you have never cleaned a firearm, know that it is a lengthy and arduous process when done correctly. It is also an extremely annoying task (again, when done correctly). Back when I had a rifle, I cleaned it when necessary, but I certainly did not enjoy the task.

I have aforetimes expressed my suspicion that, in the gun nut community, “cleaning” is a synonym for “fondling.” I also suspect that it serves as a synonym for many other terms which are in no way related to cleanliness.

Yet another child dies of politeness.
