Why would she need a CCW in "The shooting occurred in the Wal-Mart in Hayden, Idaho, a town about 40 miles northeast of Spokane, Washington." anyway?
Lot of bears in the WalMart there? |
It depends on the gun, but my hand gun for instance the safety is the hammer. For this reason I don't leave the gun with a bullet in the chamber. In fact I don't even leave a clip in the gun unless I'm using it.
This woman obviously had the gun cocked and loaded as a 2 yo wouldn't have been able to shoot the gun by just fiddling around with it in her purse. This is yet another case that shows people whom carry guns for self defense are more likely to die from their own gun than someone else's.
I do support gun ownership, but facts are facts. Almost all accidents are caused by gun owners whom are irresponsible and I bet every single one of them belived they are responsible.
