Your best option for personal security is a lifelong commitment to avoidance, deterrence, and de-escalation.
When those fail, aim for center mass.

Perhaps someone should revise Col. Jeff Cooper's 4 basic safety rules by adding a new 1st one: "Don't ever point the muzzle at yer [insert body part here]" .......and then follow with the other 4 in regular order.Vol Texan wrote:I see what you did there.puma guy wrote:Easy, being a convicted felon he broke the penal code.joe817 wrote:From the article: "She said the man told her he sat on the gun, which went off accidentally."

1. Don't ever point the muzzle at yer [body part]. Use a mallet to pound it flat instead, if you must.
2. All guns are always loaded.
3. Never let the muzzle cover anything you are not willing to destroy. (See #1 !!!!)
4. Keep your finger off the trigger until your sights are on the target.
5. Be sure of your target and what is beyond it.
Perhaps we could persuade the unenlightened to EDC a mallet........

I think allowing those who would injure themselves thus shouldn't be discouraged. The less they procreate the less future generations of non-thinkers.The Annoyed Man wrote:Perhaps someone should revise Col.

The left lies about everything. Truth is a liberal value, and truth is a conservative value, but it has never been a left-wing value. People on the left say whatever advances their immediate agenda. Power is their moral lodestar; therefore, truth is always subservient to it. - Dennis Prager

I think this should be eligible for the Darwin award. He didn't die, but he did ensure he wouldn't procreate.

Yeah this may be the best one.

Re: FL: Man sits down in car, shoots himself in the genitials
BTW, I just want to make sure we're all on the same page...... "genitials" (as in the thread title) is the same thing as "genitals", right?

Since it was in Florida, he may have been a genteel Gentile who shot himself in the genitals not so gently.puma guy wrote:Well, his are no longer essential genitials!Jusme wrote:The Annoyed Man wrote:BTW, I just want to make sure we're all on the same page......

They could have saved the taxpayers a lot of money by giving Bradley Manning this choice if he really wanted to be Chelsea.
