watch that muzzle - video reminder

[throttletony]

THere are 4 (or 5 - depending on school of thought) rules for gun safety.
They are a variation of these:
1 - treat all guns as being loaded, "All guns are loaded"
2 - keep muzzle pointed in safe direction, or, "don't point the gun at anything you're not willing to destroy"
3 - finger off trigger until sights are on target
4 - know your target and what's beyond it

This vid is a good reminder of what can happen when these rules aren't followed.

The police one was hard to watch. The first one was stupid games/stupid prizes, though.

I can say it in Spanish "la pistola no esta cargada", but how do I say "eet ain't low-dead" in Afrikaans?

Also, need to know how to say "Dem rulez don't no ways app-lie to da kom-batt 'cause I is special" in Afrikaans, Xhosa, Venda and maybe Zulu.

So many world languages, so little time...
I can help with Spanish and Portuguese (and take an educated guess in Italian/French/Catalan/Romanian/Galician)... but not much help outside of romance languages.

There are dozens more, actually, but many of those just don't apply to safe gun handling.

I did find the most important one hiding in there, which is nice:

...keep muzzle pointed in safe direction, or, "don't point the gun at anything you're not willing to destroy"...

ALWAYS.

True, there are more rules than that. I guess those just compile the most essential to safe handling

Ugh. That police officer one was indeed hard to watch. The other one, not as hard, but still a shame that someone had to lose their life. They were being total idiots for sure, and deserve some form of punishment, but sheesh. "Death by idiot" is hard to watch.

Just need the languages of the RSA.
