Another Church Shooting
Quote | Reply
A husband and wife pair was accidentally shot in a Tennessee church after discussing church shootings with members of their place of worship.


When someone asked if any of the guests had brought a gun to their church, an unidentified man in his Eighties told the group, “I carry my handgun everywhere,”

That's it. No more going to church for me.

Seems like the sort of situation where that should be the end of him being able to own firearms of any sort.

“Just want to let Everyone know that there was a shooting in town today. But it was not an active shooter situation. It was an accidentally discharged handgun,” the Tellico Plains Police Department said in a statement on Facebook. “No other people were harmed in this accident.”[/quote]

80 years old and he doesn't know better than to pull the trigger. Yeah, may be time to take away his guns.


Somebody else walked up and said, ‘Can I see it?'” Parks said. “He pulled it back out and said, ‘With this loaded indicator, I can tell that it’s not loaded.’ ” The man pulled the trigger to prove it was not loaded but he “just forgot that he re-chambered the weapon,” Parks said.

Are we sure this was accidental? Maybe his wife had been nagging him too much.

Oops!

There’s a reason why I don’t take Mrs. Duffy to the range. :)
