Armed and Clumsy (all-new)
The following uncoordinated people accidentally shot themselves recently, having chosen to carry their gun not in a holster but in the waistband of their pants: Manranzana Grimes, 16 (Canton, Ohio, September) (shot himself in the leg); a 23-year-old man (Wichita, Kan., November) (shot himself in the testicles); Gregory Quinn, 49 (Lewistown, Pa., November) (in the leg when removing his gun while driving); Evando Minor (Baltimore, November) (in the genitals while drawing his gun to rob a taxi driver). [Canton Repository, 9-4-06] [Wichita Eagle, 11-15-06] [Centre Daily Times (State College, Pa.), 11-23-06] [WBAL-TV (Baltimore), 11-16-06]

Sadly, the final count is now 22, 2 of them fatal, which is still better than last year. Confused

[insert commentary about sport-hunting versus excuse-to-go-drinking-hunting here]

and finally ...

people ask me to go hunting with them every year. I think " hmm... 300,000 drunk men in the woods with high power rifles....." no I think I will just see what their wives are doing instead.... Twisted Evil

You have waaaaaay too many guns over there. Rolling Eyes

When we first moved here, my son asked a kid what there is to do on the weekends. He was mortified when the kid told him that he goes out pig shooting with his father.

I've been hunting. Granted it's been a good 15 years, but I saw nothing like what was described. We (my father & I) wouldn't go out with anyone that was not going to be safe. As for the drinking, well, that was at night, inside where it was warm (we would go hunting in upstate NY at the end of November).
