5 shot in separate gun show incidents
The gun crazies are now eating their young, and there’s a sort of poetic justice in that, as the feeding frenzies known as gun shows demonstrate more reasons why guns shouldn’t be allowed in the hands of idiots.
Five people were injured yesterday in accidental shootings at three separate gun shows, reports CNN. A man unpacking a shotgun he intended to sell accidentally discharged the weapon, injuring three people with birdshot at the Dixie Gun and Knife Show in North Carolina. The incident closed down the gun show, but it was set to reopen today. “I’m sure there isn’t anybody who hates this more than the guy who owned this weapon,” says the local police chief, who added that they were looking into whether it’s legal to bring a loaded weapon to state property.
Elsewhere, a man at an Ohio gun show accidentally shot off a semiautomatic weapon, shooting his business partner. And a man at an Indiana gun show accidentally shot himself in the hand as he was loading a .45 caliber semiautomatic. “The investigation determined the shooting to be accidental, and no charges will be filed,” says a police official.

“guns shouldn’t be allowed in the hands of idiots.”
Amen!
You just cannot fix stupid.
coo coo ,,,,,,, Wait ’til someone gets shot in the head. Oh yeah, that’s already happened.
The rules must have changed. In the gun shows I used to attend, before they were so inhabited by crazies. there were strict rules about all weapons being unloaded at all times.
I’m sure there were people then that ignored the rules, too. But I don;t remember any incidents of weapons being discharged, accidentally or otherwise.
