Hit me with your best shot!!! This needs all the puns it can get.
Gun nut gets nuts gunned by loose control on gun from loose gun controls
Loosely speaking...
That is what he gets from mixing stupidity and guns.
Hopefully he has been neutered. People that stupid should not be allowed to reproduce. I'm a gun owning veteran who does not see the need for a conceal permit or walk around packing. Additionally, this idiot should never have the gun loaded. I hope they press charges.
@Antidronefreeman *"Marion police said Jones did not have a license for the Hi-Point 9mm gun he was carrying.
Grant County prosecutors will review the case to consider possible criminal charges."*
well, maybe he was just trying to get his rocks off.
That will be an explosion he will never forget.
Sing it with me!!!
Oh, you...chitty-chitty bang, bang... Chitty chitty bang bang we love you....
Bwa ha ha ha ......oops....I mean.....oh poor guy. How terrible. I guess that's what playin at cowboys can git ya sometimes. ??
So if he goes to jail for not having a permit will the other prisoners know him by his high pitched voice?
At least he was a good shot. He could have missed.
Yeah, someone innocent could have been hurt, and that is what concerns me most. I'm fine with him castrating himself. If he hurts a child... does not bear thinking about.
@HippieChick58 that is why i said he was a good shot he got in the way of the bullet.
Poor guy. It’s too easy to poke fun when you don’t know the person or the situation. I hope he recovers well.
Just the act of sticking a loaded weapon in his trousers is enough to make me wonder about his intelligence and critical thinking skills.
@HippieChick58 Are the unintelligent unworthy of sympathy and dignity?
@indirect76 Ya know, I took a few minutes to think about this. I am one of the most compassionate people you could ever meet. What this guy did not only endangered himself, but other innocent bystanders as well. I am a proponent of gun control. I spent six years in the Army, I have fired and cleaned an M16A1 rifle. I have an expert badge. I got that badge the year you were born. Guns need to be regulated, gun owners need training and safety courses. Guns should be insured just like cars are. And NO ONE ever dies of embarrassment. I want this man used as an example of really stupid decisions and the need for gun control. I want him used as a horrible example of what can go wrong. I want him used as a warning to others that take the care and handling of dangerous weapons so lightly. I have NO sympathy for him, no one jot, tittle or iota. Jot used as a noun means very little amount. A tittle is a tiny amount or part of something. And iota means an extremely small amount. So no, he does not deserve sympathy or dignity. He lost his dignity when he stuck that weapon in his pants. Do you have any further questions?
@HippieChick58 That’s fair. The article doesn’t say much about the situation other than he was walking by a river. I’m curious why he thought he needed to carry a gun with him. I’m curious about quite a few things. So yeah, I have lots of questions.
@HippieChick58 Nice reply and I agree with you 100%.
(I got my expert badge 6 years later than you and this has nothing to do with your post)
@indirect76 Questions are good, and I appreciate you providing the opportunity to clarify my thinking and for your response. In most places I don't see a need for anyone to carry a loaded weapon. I have grandbabies that I would die for. I'd rather not die for them needlessly because some dolt stuck a loaded gun in his pants and it went off.
@HippieChick58 Well, Thanks. I certainly appreciate you allowing me to see a different viewpoint as well.
Now, the article did say this man was walking on a riverside path. So it’s conceivable that he wasn’t posing a threat to anyone but himself. At the end of the day, we just don’t have that much info about this story.
@HippieChick58 indeed! Perhaps that means the gene pool is to be less contaminated by more imbecilic DNA.
Aw, so sad, too bad, I'm very glad.
Well, at least his balls got a 'bang' out of it....LOL.
You're bad!! Very good!
1st: I thought this was about the idiot in WalMart a while back.
2nd: I'd almost bet money it was a Glock.
Article says the gun was a Hi-Point. What makes you think it was a glock? Is it the safety mechanism on the trigger?
@indirect76 Yeah, the almost (in my view) non-existant safety mechanism. The "problem" of the safety has been overblown by the media and society (myself included). I still feel the need for a manual safety, perhaps it's myself I don't trust with a Glock, not the Glock itself.
Thoughts?
@MacTavish I got a Glock 19 last year and the safety was my only reservation. After having it for nearly a year I’m pretty OK with it. It’s not caused any issue for me, but that’s pretty anecdotal. I’ll definitely take it any day over a Hi-Point.
@Gooniesnvrdie While Hi-Points are cheap and not very durable, I suppose if that’s all you can afford and you really need a gun for protection, it’s better than nothing.
@Gooniesnvrdie I Agree and would not argue for anyone to get a cheap gun like that. I’m just saying it beats nothing in the perhaps rare situation of only being able to afford it.
