It's only true if it's on this forum where opinions are facts and facts are opinions

Yep. We have a winner! Darwin Award for sure.
Sad thing is this was somebody's son, friend, brother etc..
Alcohol makes people do some stupid stuff, seen it too many times and it hits too close to home.
No. The sad thing is they're running around with the same DNA.

Yes, yes, I know not even a Zip Gun should be pointed at yer noggin. What he did was beyond irresponsible and his unsafe handling of a gun cost him his life.

This was multiple failure of his safety training. First, using alcohol while handling firearms, Second, Pointing a firearm at something you do not intend to shoot, and third, failure of that cardinal rule of "Never pointing a gun at anything you do not intend to shoot!" But the alcohol caused his thought process to become clouded, so it can definitely be considered as the "Root Cause!"
We make choices everyday. Some very minor, some just seem minor but can be very major in the scheme of things. Anytime you pick up, handle and/or operate a firearm you should think about this. Think about what you're doing and the implications of your actions. We should also remember that familiarity breeds contempt. When we handle firearms on a regular basis we can become contemptuous and forget their potential lethality. "Nuff Said!"
I guess removing people like this from the gene Pool will eventually cure this problem, but it's too bad education won't work here. Why won't it work here? Because Supidity Knows No Bounds!
Son that's somebody with nothing to do with his time but keep me in trouble with mom.
