At least 27 people died in “selfie-related” incidents around the world last year ....And, once again the herd thins itself. Who cares?

Beer + Girlfriend jealous of beer. Did she make sure the gun was loaded unbeknownst to him?

The good news is that he will never negligently kill someone else.

Any 43 year old man doing selfies probably deserves such a fate.

“he thought...”
No, he didn’t think. He ASSUMED the gun was unloaded.
One of the most important rules: always assume the gun is loaded.

“The man’s girlfriend was with him when he died, Skagit County Sheriff’s Office Chief of Patrol Chad Clark told the Skagit Valley Herald. Police are investigating his death as accidental.”
Sure, the article wasn’t directly about politics, so let’s accept the story completely as written, because the sheriff accepted the only witness’ story as fact.
Like we accepted Cinderella’s pronouncement a few days ago.

Selfies don’t kill. Stupid people taking selfies kill.
What next? sue Apple for not putting warnings on Iphones not to take selfies with loaded guns?

My husband caught heck from my daughter and I about those rules. He had just finished building his AR and proudly took a selfie posing with it. Finger on the trigger. Of course he knew it wasn’t loaded as he had built it and never loaded it but we let him have it anyway. As hard and as often as he drilled us, we couldn’t let it go. Lol

I care. I only laugh about 27 times a year.
