They arent.

I enjoy fishing, but what is it about that mob that thump home the outdoor sport thing all the time. It’s recreation, it’s as much of a sport as playstation is. Target shooting is a sport, hunting is depending on motive not a sport.

They have a lot to answer for with the laws that are promoting deer hunting at the cost of feral deer management too. Sambar are destroying the bush.

A reply to: @McGoved regarding QuoteLink
Kids today are so much more technically minded than when we were at the same age. How the kid released the safety on the gun before pulling the trigger was just plain clever.

Most American-made handguns can only have the safety catch applied after it is cocked (ie - “one in the chamber”). It’s actually an effective way to test if it’s loaded. If the safety catch won’t move to the “safe” position, it’s not cocked (the other options of course are to look down the barrel and see if there is a round in the chamber, or close your eyes and pull the trigger to see if it makes a loud noise). However, many, many gun-owners have poor handling skills and will often ■■■■ a weapon and then forget to apply the safety.

As someone trained on many different types of firearms, and having had to carry one for prolonged periods over the years, I never want one in my house or near my kids. Absolutely insane.

I’m not sure I’m comfortable about a furious monkey having a gun

US Republican official Christina Bond fatally shot herself as she adjusted her bra holster
3 HOURS AGO FEBRUARY 19, 2015 10:12AM
AN elected Republican official in the US Midwest fatally shot herself in an eye while trying to adjust her bra holster, investigators have found.
Christina Bond, 55, had died at her home at Lake Michigan on January 1 from what Michigan Department of Public Safety and Berrien County Sheriff’s Department in St Joseph believed was from a self-inflicted gunshot wound to an eye.
St Joseph Public Safety Department is awaiting a full autopsy report in the death of Bond, but director Mark Clapp yesterday released details about the circumstances surrounding the shooting to the Kalamazoo Gazette.
“She was having trouble adjusting her bra holster, couldn’t get it to fit the way she wanted it to. She was looking down at it and accidentally discharged the weapon,” said Clapp.

Bond was taken to Lakeland Hospital and then flown to Bronson Methodist Hospital, where she died on January 2.
Her obituary, published in The Herald-Palladium, said that Bond spent two years in the US Navy. An administrator at Road to Life Church for 15 years, she had been recently elected as Republican Precinct Delegate for Saint Joseph Charter Precinct 1.
“This was a great experience!” Bond wrote after being elected precinct delegate last August. “What I learnt is that we need more people involved in taking our country back and it starts at home with everyday people who care, and I believe we all care. So let’s do it!!”

You gotta laugh. Dumb ways to die.

Comfortably satisfied she was not, however.

Nice that the mother taught the kid how to shoot. Imo he just needs to aim better.

Gun-loving mother may face jail time after her four-year-old son accidentally shot her

A Florida mother who was accidentally shot in the back by her four-year-old son just hours after she bragged about his shooting prowess may face a criminal charge in connection with the incident.

The Putnam County Sheriff’s Office has asked that Jamie Gilt be charged with a second-degree misdemeanour charge of allowing a minor access to a firearm, according to CNN.

Captain Gator DeLoach told the network Tuesday that the charge carries a penalty of up to 180 days in jail.

Sheriff’s officials did not immediately respond to The Washington Post’s request for comment.

But, CNN added: “DeLoach said the sheriff’s office supports the rights of citizens to own and possess firearms, but gun owners have the ‘additional responsibility of ensuring children do not gain unintended access to a firearm in hopes of preventing tragedies like this.’”

It will be up to the state attorney’s office to decide whether to charge Gilt. An office spokesman told The Post that the case is under review but declined further comment on the matter.

According to Florida law, it is illegal for minors to possess a firearm unless they are under the supervision of an adult. There are exceptions, the law states - if the minor is at least 16 and engaged in lawful hunting, a recreational shooting activity or marksmanship competition, for instance; or if the weapon is unloaded and being transported to one of those events.

Officials told the Florida Times-Union that Gilt was not supervising her son when he fired a .45-caliber handgun, hitting his mother in the back while she was driving down a road in Putnam County earlier this month.

The Associated Press quoted DeLoach saying that Gilt had placed the loaded weapon underneath the front seat of her pickup before it slid to the back seat, where her son was able to pick it up off the floor after unbuckling himself from a child booster seat.

The AP reported that the gun - which was legally owned - was not in a holster and didn’t have a trigger lock on.

“She was shot through the seat and the round went through her back,” sheriff’s Captain Joseph Wells told the Times-Union. “There was a booster seat in the back of the vehicle, but, however, the boy was not strapped in when the deputy got to them.”

Hours before the March 8 shooting, Gilt had bragged on Facebook that her son “gets jacked up to target shoot.”

The 31-year-old Jacksonville woman’s social media presence is filled with pro-gun messages, Second Amendment memes and posts supporting the NRA, as well as photos of her posing with weapons.

She appears to maintain a Facebook page called Jamie Gilt for Gun Sense, which has since been inundated by people criticising her passion for weapons in light of being shot by her son.

The page includes numerous posts asserting that the government plans to confiscate weapons from US citizens.

Gilt was towing a trailer when the shooting occurred and was on her way to a relative’s home to pick up a horse, police said.

Her vehicle was spotted by a sheriff’s deputy who was driving by and noticed Gilt in the driver’s seat “motioning to him as if she needed assistance,” according to police. After approaching the vehicle, the deputy realised that Gilt had been shot.

“The deputy provided first aid until the arrival of paramedics,” according to a statement released by the Putnam County Sheriff’s Department. “The victim was transported to University of Florida Health in Gainesville and was last reported to be in stable condition. The only other occupant of the vehicle was the victim’s four-year-old son, who was unharmed.”

Before she went into the emergency room, the statement added, Gilt told police that she’d been shot by her son.

Officials told the Gainsville Sun that they didn’t have information about Gilt’s condition or whether she’d been released from the hospital.

A Florida Department of Children and Families investigation remains open, and Gilt’s children remain in the care of family members, a DCF spokesman told The Post.

^^^just farking unbelievable to have a loaded gun anywhere near children.

Read this morning in the US last year toddlers with guns killed more people than terrorists.

Apparently it’s not the first year that’s been the case either.

Wouldn’t be surprised at all.
Not many terrorist attacks in the US of late though - last one the Boston marathon?
