I Can't Understand Why People Like Guns

he wasn't out of the neighborhood yet*

Not saying it was a murder. I believe it was an accident. The article said that the car rolled into the woods near a church after the shot was fired. How close is that to the neighborhood? Sounds rural. Police didn't release shooting details, but the neighbors know? Guy is taking his children fishing, and brings a loaded gun? Wow!

it's less than 2 minutes away and yeah it's a rural county but 10 minutes from the city

That's nice, stay safe

always gun on safety all the time. i have one gun with no safety on it never shot never carry it because that the way i was taught. safety on all the time.

Same here

probably didn't have the safety on, etc (i just find them unnecessarily dangerous) it could've shot his kids

That's true, there are places for a gun but in a car with kids is not one of them.

I asked the same question. Details are sketchy, and the police did not release much info about the incident. Apparently, the person who died was a father of four children, the oldest was 9, and the kids were in the car at the time their father was fatally wounded. He was taking the kids fishing at the time of the accident. The father was the owner of a handgun, and hand a concealed carry permit. The article does not state if the father had his weapon in the car, or if the shot fired was from his gun. The author of this piece told me that the neighbors say the guy was killed by his own weapon. Not sure how they would know unless they were on the scene. No details on how the gun went off, other than it was an accident. In my mind, it doesn't add up. People with a CCL are trained. They lived in a rural area. He should have known better than to be carrying a loaded weapon in a car with small children - assuming that is what happened.
