Cleaning Lady Accidental Discharge

This one is brutal:

ksl.com - Man killed in accidental shooting

Cleaning crew in a foreclosed property finds rifles, guy gets a belly full of
300 win mag and dies. Very sad, completely preventable as is usually the case. Cleaning lady had probably never even held a gun before, not sure how else someone would accidentally pull the trigger on a hunting rifle...

"Sandy police are looking for the people to whom the guns are registered."

Unless Sandy is a neighborhood in Chicago, I don't think the rifles are "registered" to anyone.

This is why firearm safety should be as important in school as is birth control.

The state of Utah keeps no formal "registry" of firearms. It can, however, easily find out who most recently purchased some guns.

It's special journalist trick-talk that's meant to get people numb to the idea of gun registry.

I'm so thoroughly pissed off at that lady. "Oh, here's a firearm! I should point it at a human being!" WTF was she thinking?

Ignorance kills, people! Ignorance kills PEOPLE, people!

"Get me more Pine Sol!"

"That's not my job, lady."

"GET ME PINE SOL OR I BLOW A HOLE IN YOU!"

GYEAH!

I moved about 2 years ago and the firearms were some of the first items moved. Not sure why someone would leave anything of value in a foreclosed home let alone a firearm and a loaded one to boot.
