Grandma Fires Round Through Wall While Teaching Gun Safety

Cops: Firearm discharges while grandma explains gun safety

 

[EdC]

It was lesson that her granddaughter will never forget!

Regardless of the rest of the story, what does THIS mean?? "She had a valid permit to possess the gun, police said."
I know I sure don't have any "permits to possess".

My Dad had a sying, "everyone knows an unloaded gun kills so I keep mine loaded" meaning that you treat every gun as if it loaded all the time!!

At least it was pointed in a safe direction

LAPORTE | A LaPorte area woman teaching her grandaughter about gun safety escaped injury Wednesday when the firearm she was handling accidentally discharged.

Thinking the handgun was not loaded, she pulled the trigger and a single shot penentrated her bedroom wall.

This does not equal accidental discharge, it equals stupid grandma! Glad her 13 yr old granddaughter didn't have to pay for her stupidity.

An "Unloaded gun' accidentally discharges... Imagine that!!

Soooooo glad they put in there that Grandma had a permit...NOT its guilt by association.

Bllomburgia/ Emmanuel opinion..."See you gun nuts, if we took away all those nasty guns, things like this couldn't happen...

The weapon did NOT "Accidentally Discharge", she pulled the trigger!

Jesus christ, idiots like this give us all a bad rap. Even when I know I have unchambered and removed the magazine my finger never goes near the trigger.

We don't know if the wall was acting in a threatening manner. Don't be too quick to judge.

My wall has been eyeing me funny all night come to think about it!

 

[sepe]

Let me know if you need back up, I'm only minutes away.

Let me know if you need back up, I'm only minutes away.

I think it moved toward me in a threatening manner. I wet myself and ran off to bed so I'm hoping I will be ok till morning.

My wife is telling me to stop whimpering and hiding under the covers. She just doesn't understand.

 

[actaeon277]

As long as it's not a 5 yr old girl.

 

[TomN]

As long as it's not a 5 yr old girl.

You trying to give me MORE nightmares tonight???

 

[actaeon277]

Why not. I'm on midnights. Might as well have company

Did'nt realize you needed any "permit" or LTCH to have a weapon on your property. STUPID
