    I mean, I like things that go boom as much as the next human. But how hard is it to; 1, not fucking literally sleep with the thing. And 2; leave it unloaded if you are‽

    Why was a loaded gun on the bed? That seems like terrible firearm safety.

      Not in US. In US gun owners are never responsible for what happens with their guns. It can be the kid’s fault, the dog’s fault or even fault of the gun itself but it’s never the gun owner’s fault.

    I’m not American but even I know you need to keep your dogs secured in a dog safe when you’re not using them. It’s just basic dog safety

      The only thing that stops a good dog with a gun is a bad dog with a gun.

      Or maybe a cat with a knife, I guess? I dunno.😸

        It is the cat. The problem is then you need a mouse with a rusty needle to deal with the cat.

          And then a parasite with a Tylenol to deal with the mouse, and so it ever was.

    The victim told police that before the incident, he was cleaning his firearm

    getting shot by own gun and cleaning it, these often come together, maybe is safer to keep them dirty

      Also complete bullshit. If you’re cleaning it, you wouldn’t have a round in the chamber.

      Somehow he was cleaning it and it still had rounds to fire or he cleaned and reloaded and left it unsecured so it had rounds to fire. Sounds like sort of person who should own a gun for sure.
