    While the article seems to imply the gun mysteriously went off at the very moment he was picking it up, atleast the headline says he shot himself. Guns go bang when you pull the trigger, negligent or purposeful.

    If you think it's not loaded, it's OK to point it at yourself and pull the trigger just to make sure.

    I'm glad he will live to learn from this. Compassion running on empty tonight it seems.

    at our hospital we saw two GSWs today. We are not a trauma center. Things happen.

    Im pretty sure it was at bass pro. We arrived around 140ish and there were a few police in the parking lot and an ambulance rolled in while we were gettint out of the car. Later on I asked some guy what happened and he said something about some guy shooting himself in the stomach.
