Both the "locks away guns, guns are always empty except on the shooting range or hunting, safety conscious" person and the "gets drunk every evening and sleeps with a loaded gun under their pillow" person are actually totally safe as long as they uphold the number one rule of gun safety: "The barrel of a gun may never be pointed at a person". Super hard to shoot someone unless you are Angelina Jolie or James McAvoy or one of those bullet ricochet superheroes. Of course it's a useless rule since it is simply stating the obvious. But that doesn't seem to stop people from repeating it.

Or stabbed by kids because wifi is down ....

[-] Kolanaki@pawb.social 17 points 19 hours ago

People getting stabbed with wives instead of knives now 😔

[-] And009@lemmynsfw.com 7 points 13 hours ago

Sharp women

[-] farngis_mcgiles@sh.itjust.works 2 points 14 hours ago

these goddamn feminists ruin everything

[-] GraniteM@lemmy.world 23 points 20 hours ago* (last edited 20 hours ago)

In any given year, more than half of all gun deaths are suicides, so really it should read...

Go back inside

Shoot self

[-] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 4 points 15 hours ago

But how would they type it?

[-] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 3 points 10 hours ago

They are a bad shot

[-] And009@lemmynsfw.com 4 points 13 hours ago

So much potential greentext, wasted.

[-] unknown1234_5@kbin.earth 16 points 20 hours ago

this is why we need to regulate wives

We kinda do, there are legal requirements for marriage

[-] Dasus@lemmy.world 4 points 18 hours ago

I'd say we should just outright make homicide illegal so we don't have to be sexist about it.

[-] KillingTimeItself@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 18 hours ago

yeah, fuck men though, they can stab as many men as they want, as long as they're in a gay relationship.

[-] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 14 points 22 hours ago

Be British

Go to the United States

Don't Get Blown up in a Cybertruck

Don't Get Shot up in a mass shooting

Don't Get Robbed shirtless by a home invasion

Don't Get Scammed broke by a crypto-coin shill

Do find the one person in the entire country who insists on doing knife crime

Marry her

Get stabbed to death

Post about it on 4chan

[-] Gregu@lemmy.ca 15 points 23 hours ago

Fake. Anon doesn’t have a wife. That would involve talking to a woman.

[-] Sir_Premiumhengst@lemmy.world 9 points 22 hours ago

And gay, for he got impaled from behind.

most gun owners are safe and cautious

I know some of the most brain dead takes that my friends with guns do. Some gun owners are absolutely crazy when it comes to gun safety and storage.

[-] wookiepedia@lemmy.world 3 points 14 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago)

Another take, I am super on it with gun safety, but not storage. There are never minors allowed in my home, and a gun isn't useful unless you can get to it easily and it's ready to go. Only guns resting inside the safe are unloaded, all the guns that work for a living have loaded magazines and a round in the chamber (I don't own any 1911 pattern guns, if I did, they would not be chambered.) Also, no exposed trigger, everything is in a holster.

The number of people who openly admit to coworkers that they have couch guns scares me

you should bully them for it, they deserve it.

[-] ChillPenguin@lemmy.world 1 points 4 hours ago

Oh I definitely do. Because I get quick access defense. But at the same time there is a limit to that. Especially if kids are in the house.

[-] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 1 points 15 hours ago

But not so much you get shot.

[-] KillingTimeItself@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 14 hours ago

fuck it, get shot, why not fuck up their lives.

[-] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 2 points 14 hours ago

At least you're helping the next person, just make sure to record your own shooting so the police can arrest them.

Exceptions are rare enough that there’s only like one mass shooting a week!

[-] rtxn@lemmy.world 70 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

In 2022 or 2023 there was one mass shooting for every day of the year. Anon was simply in the wrong place.

https://www.massshootingtracker.site/

Looks like they're on track for another great year of mass shootings!

[-] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 24 points 1 day ago

90 mass shootings in 101 days! At least 11 days without one, way to go USA.

See that is the problem.

All gun owners should be completely cautious and safe. That is why you background check them thoroughly.

[-] hanrahan@slrpnk.net 15 points 1 day ago

So she was "standing her ground?"

[-] N0tTheBees@sh.itjust.works 15 points 1 day ago

Could just be a story about a man getting pegged by his wife

[-] LustyArgonianMana@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

Maybe it was justified, let's hear her out
