Or like you could read about the gross legal negligence and seemingly booby trap shit, but whatever, it aligns with your view it whatever.
Somehow, the dog had triggered the shotgun – which had a live round chambered – to fire, damaging the vehicle and striking a female passerby.
No you’re right loaded guns kill people, we can just keep them all unloaded and it would be safe.
Or like, store them safely and not rig traps and keep them loaded under a dashboard. That would probably drive accidental deaths lower than the current number of ~.0000625% of gun owners involved in an accidental discharge to an even lower number.
Or like it’s a very bad idea to have easy access to lethal firearms for basically everyone because “mistakes” like this are bound to happen again and again, but whatever…
Accidental gun discharges are pretty rare. In the hundreds a year. And they are almost always with negligent gun owners storing a loaded gun not in a lock box.
It’s not a mistake, it’s willful ignorance by dumb ass fuck trumpets.

And I’m sure it’s just as high in every other country, right? Right??

I’m not addressing that. You just want to argue against guns and are going on an unrelated tangent.
Legally, as in words mean something, it is negligence in the majority of cases and these people will face legal repercussions because they as a matter of law have been defined at fault.
Bro we’re humans we’re all negligent at some point, you are trying to distance yourself from these negligent gun owners but you actually can’t because your human and you make mistakes too.
.000625%(napkin math) of gun owners experience an accidental gun discharge each year.
It just doesn’t happen that often without gross negligence 🤷♂️.
Fair enough, but i guess yeah im scared of guns and i dont like having the right to carry one. Because any of the other 400 million Americans have the same right and they might be grossly negligent and then i end up the victim of someone’s dog accidentally discharging a shotgun from the car in the lane next to me.
I like shooting guns i go a few times a year to the shooting range, it’s always a good day and i feel good about knowing im ready to use one. I still just don’t need one in my home and I don’t think my neighbors need to be walking around with them either.
Hey you do you and we all feel how we feel. But are you that afraid of lightning? Because we’re talking the same percentages.or kids drowning in a pool.
Gun violence sucks and it’s dumb that we can’t have any sort of middle ground on the conversation, but getting accidentally shot is so far down on that list of things that will kill you.
That dog didn’t shoot anyone the negligent gun owner did.
EDIT: There’s no “rack” mentioned in the source. I assumed that. A loose loaded gun makes even less sense, tho.
Loaded while in a vehicle-mounted rack. Not just illegal, but also violates some fairly fundamental gun safety principles.
Heck, just “treat every gun a loaded” and “never point a gun at anything you don’t want shot” means we should probably do away with most vehicle-mounted racks to being with. I suppose inside the metal toolbox in the truck bed would be okay; at least then the dog wouldn’t fire it.
Gun owners should have to carry liability insurance for things like this.
That would just discriminate against poor people and people that live in high crime areas.
It would promote responsible gun ownership.
Plenty of rich people are irresponsible
How many other countries have “shot by babies” and “shot by animals” stats?
