And she will probably put it BACK THERE or in another equally stupid place even after having been SHOT!
People are dumba$$es, particularly when it comes to gun safety.

Strippers are just a convenient way to reload an internal magazine rapidly.

That sounds like an ammo guy trying to justify his expense report entry of "strippers fees".

Reminds me of my ex idiot brother in law.

On a visit, he gave my remote to my two year old nephew to play with.

This pissed me off, because it was my toy, not his to share.

Plus my nephew was smashing the buttons, emulating his dad and sending the TV into spasms of light and noise.

I told the idiot BIL that it was annoying, so he said, "I can fix that" and removed the batteries.

So now the two year old knows how to take my remote apart.

(The nephew is 22 now and actually turned out pretty good)

So, always check the chamber before allowing your 3 year-old to play with your weapon.

I would never give a three-year-old a semiautomatic for a toy. Their little hands aren't strong enough to rack the action back in a combat reload. You start them off with revolvers at that age, something with a nice easy trigger pull, maybe single-action only until their grip strengthens.

And no full auto before age seven. It'll give 'em something to look forward to.

Was the kid's name "Stewie", by any chance?

Doubtful, though fanciful. If it was Stewie, Peter would have been the one to put it back in the sofa. Lois hides Stewie's guns on the top shelf in the kitchen cabinets.

yes....yes it is. But getting this terminology right is the least of the MSM's problems.

True, but for them to use the correct terminology would indicate they've made a minimum effort to learn a bit about the subject.

...striking the mother in the knee.
