You wouldn’t know her, she buys her knives from a different store

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.
ZombiFrancis@sh.itjust.works 3 weeks ago
I have known a number gun enthusiasts. About half of them have been safe with them. Only one shot themself.
The numbers aren’t great.
amorpheus@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
And isn’t it every week that a toddler shoots someone? It’s not a good look.
captainlezbian@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
The number of people who openly admit to coworkers that they have couch guns scares me

Because what’s better than knowing your balls could get blown at any moments while binging Netflix.
phoenixz@lemmy.ca 3 weeks ago
Yeah, press x to doubt
Some are extremely careful. Way too many(majority , from personal experience) are “meh” at best, and a smaller part (but still way too many) are just using guns as a baby rattle (figure of speech, though I’ve seen things)
ChillPenguin@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
I have a friend who has a quick access weapon for defense. But he keeps the AR in the corner of his bedroom, a loaded magazine, not chambered. But has a curious 2 year old in his house. And that’s just one instance from a single friend. And he rationalizes it, saying he keeps the door locked. (Which isn’t true because the time we came over and noticed it, the door was wide open)
And this is coming from me, who fairly recently got into firearms and got my CCW. Sometimes the lack of priority for safety just leaves me astounded. This is why statistics happen.
RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
When there are millions of gun owners even a few percent using guns for “baby rattles” is still a very significant number.
wookiepedia@lemmy.world 3 weeks 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 area 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.

you should bully them for it, they deserve it.
ChillPenguin@lemmy.world 3 weeks 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 3 weeks ago
But not so much you get shot.
GraniteM@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
In any given year, more than half of all gun deaths are suicides, so really it should read…
'>Go back inside
'>Shoot self

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

Could just be a story about a man getting pegged by his wife
nthavoc@lemmy.today 3 weeks ago
Or stabbed by kids because wifi is down …
Honytawk@lemmy.zip 3 weeks ago
See that is the problem.
All gun owners should be completely cautious and safe. That is why you background check them thoroughly.
GrumpyDuckling@sh.itjust.works 3 weeks ago
The amount of guns mechanics find just casually sitting around in customers cars is appalling. They get stolen because people leave guns in their cars and used for crimes.
zerosignal@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Whenever I see cars/trucks with gun stickers on the back, I assume they are rolling loot drops. Ain’t no way I’m advertising what guns I have. Also not leaving my guns unattended anywhere. I spent too much on that shit to leave it out for somebody else to take.
sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 3 weeks ago
Exactly. It’s either with me or locked up safely at home.
Tattorack@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Hmm…
This is some combination of right-wing gun-toting and sexism. A very… wonderful combination.
LustyArgonianMana@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Maybe it was justified, let’s hear her out
ryedaft@sh.itjust.works 3 weeks ago
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.
Rekorse@sh.itjust.works 3 weeks ago
You repeated it?
mojofrododojo@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
pfft this ridiculous shit - most gun owners are completely cautious and safe people - is disproven easily by reality.

that’s a single example of the idiocy. it gets dumber the further you research. Most, bwahahahah

Anon probably deserved it
pjwestin@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
He’s lucky his wife didn’t have a gun.
MindlessHunter4@sh.itjust.works 3 weeks ago
If the wife knows where he keeps the guns she could and probably would just as easily shoot him.
Quadhammer@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Aim center mass babe
felixwhynot@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Exceptions are rare enough that there’s only like one mass shooting a week!
rtxn@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
In 2022 or 2023 there was one mass shooting for every day of the year
Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 3 weeks ago
90 mass shootings in 101 days! At least 11 days without one, way to go USA.
Fredthefishlord@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 weeks ago
I mean, most of those are gang shootings, no? Those are always a bit disingenuous to call mass shootings.
neons@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 weeks ago
One? In both years, there have been two shootings for every year according to your source. Jesus christ!
KillingTimeItself@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 weeks ago
i mean, the US is also fucking huge compared to somewhere like europe, so that “wrong place” is the entire continental US.
bradv@lemmy.ca 3 weeks ago
Yeah but there’s like 50 weeks in a year
