UNBELIEVABLY STUPID is as UNBELIEVABLY STUPID does.
To: Neil E. Wright
If that story is true then why didn’t the rounds go through his armpit? Or into the floor? Idiot.
To: Neil E. Wright
Somethig made contact with the trigger. It is more than rare that a gun accidently goes off.

“Unbelievably” stupid is the right phrase. I don’t believe it, just as I don’t believe it when someone shoots his wife while cleaning a gun.

If he’s using it as a crutch, it’s possible that the trigger could have caught the edge of his pant leg or cast.

Defense lawyer Gary Berlant adds Meyer had been assured the gun was not fully automatic. What? What does that have to do with anything?

Sad story that a child had to die due to the stupidity of a moron.

Support to get up might be the better way to put it. Crutch made me think he already had it under his arm, too—automatic associated imagery at work.

The report says the rifle fired a “burst” and a normal semi-auto rifle wouldn’t do that. It suggests that the rifle may have been modified, or possibly had some kind of bump-fire mechanism.
Meyer is being held on $250,000 bail on charges of manslaughter, assault and unlawful possession of a machine gun.

I guess because the article said it fired a burst? Huh? How about a bullet burst forth. Whatever, Sadly he’s still here and a little girl isn’t. Obviously not too well versed in firearm safety. Did he get some safety lessons from difi?

Meyer listed his occupation as lead bouncer at a Mexican restaurant, ...implying that there are MORE bouncers. That must be some restaurant.

his fiancee told authorities that Meyer was a "big teddy bear," her June 20 petition for the restraining order described him as an "unpredictable drug addict" who had threatened her with a gun, and threatened to burn down her house, slash her tires and break the windows on her car. What the heck is going on over there in Grants Pass?

How about the guy who “accidentally” shoots himself in the chest while cleaning a revolver?

That one picture tells you everything you need to about global warming if we are supposed to believe this idiot.
