TLTR version: The gun went off while the man was cleaning it, the bullet went through a wall, and shot the woman in the head, killing her. The man, who is a next door neighbor of hers, left a note on her door apologizing for the damage, not knowing she died from it. Man is currently held in a county jail, with no bond set at the moment.

Yes. But unfortunately for this gal(Assuming it was an accident), and other people like Brandon Lee, the owners/people in charge were morons.

exactly. it's not like you're required to pass any sort of test regarding basic knowledge in order to own a gun, like you do to drive a car.

It's very basic.

Unfortunately there has been a quite dramatic shift in gun culture that went from "guns are not toys" to "guns are toys".

This gun owner was obviously insanely negligent and killed this woman, but this statement is pretty strictly NOT true. Gun safety has come a long way over the last 6 decades or so, and gun safety expectations among the community is almost certainly higher now than at any point in American history.

Which doesn't mean there aren't still plenty of absolute morons that own guns, but it is what it is.

Accident

it might not be on purpose but shit this extreme isnt an accident. An accident is dropping a glass and shattering it on the floor. Killing someone isnt an accident. Why wont America restrict guns again?

Yes, and it's a shame that our society discourages gun education and just wants a blanket ban on them.

I'm talking about meal team 6 morons and gun manufacturers realizing that they need to sell these morons "toys". That's exactly what gun culture is now and you are blind if you don't see it.

The old school 2nd amendment people who used to make fun of meal team 6 are dying out.

Reminds me of the time I went to a tea place and I ordered some green tea. The cashier asked me if I wanted any sugar in it and I'm like lol no. When you order green tea it is a delicious beverage on its own and does not need any "additives".

I heard her mention to her coworker when preparing it to "make it plain" and then when they called my order to indicate it was ready they said:

"Green tea. Black."

Isn't this 2021 I thought we were past these types of things.

Guns have been largely toys in civillian life since, like, the 1910s. By that point Marksmanship was a huge National sport encouraged by the U.S. Army and a romanticization of the West.

He should get 10 years in jail atleast.

No one with a gun should be cleaning it with ammo inside it, the manual and every gun class tells you to make sure to have the firearm safe and unloaded if cleaning.

This, they always say that, too. Either they were cleaning it or they dropped it and "it just went off".
