I had read that. Allegations of abusive behavior too. Don't think we'll be seeing Baldwin on SNL soon.

A lot of legitimately shared blame for this one.

They can all share the blame in prison.

First rule of guns is never point it at another unless to plan on using it. Doesn't matter how many others before you handled the gun.

The reason the average gun owner doesn't want prosecution for gun accidents is that the average gun owner is unsafe with guns.
I know them well enough to decide never to go to a public range or gun show.
Every single gun "accident" ought to be a crime. Period.

How often do you hear about accidents at gun shows?
A lot of people walking around carrying those scary guns but amazingly nothing bad happens. Those people are far more responsible than Hollywood celebrities.

Accidents at gun shows are very, very common. It's usually some knucklehead in the parking lot or at the gate. Not the vendors.

Can you post any links of that happening? All I have ever heard of is someone getting bent out of shape from seeing people with guns.

My local gun show was shut down after 3 straight years of having negligent discharges with injuries. Google will provide you with plenty.

I have been to many gun shows and nothing like that ever happened at the ones I went to.

None that you knew about.
But it's kinda irrelevant. There was widespread irresponsibility with guns at the shows you went to.

Most people at the gun shows with negligent discharges didn't see them either.
it's the behavior that matters, and it's universally bad.

How were they irresponsible if nothing happened?
People who go to gun shows are some of the safest and most gun savvy people around.

You think people are only irresponsible if an incident happens?
This just means you're one of them.
Most unsafe behavior doesn't yield a negligent discharge or an injury. The vast majority of bad gun handling doesn't hurt anyone.
But it's still dangerous.
That made no sense at all...
EVERYONE at a gun show would know about a negligent discharge. I won't say it's never happened, but it's definitely rare.

You said "see."
And no, I've been at a gun show with a negligent discharge. I found out about it in the paper the next day.
I really don't think you go to gun shows.
I'm done here, enjoy your Sunday.
