Thread: jesus wept

My heart goes out to this family - I cannot imagine the stress and regret they must be experiencing right now. At some point in the chain if events, someone was negligent, and it lead to a tragedy unfolding. We can all take a lesson from this and should do so.

I've experienced a negligent discharge, although thankfully there were no injuries. All it takes is a single incorrect assumption or a lapse in dilligence. Numerous friends and associates have as well - almost all with semi auto pistols.

I believe that if you handle firearms regularly enough, the odds of something like this happening increases, to the point where your number will come up. Just pray that on that day, you are fortunate enough to get away without an injury, let alone a fatality.
