KENOSHA, Wis. (AP) — A Wisconsin woman accidentally shot a friend while using the laser sight on a handgun to play with a cat, authorities said.
A criminal complaint charging the 19-year-old woman with negligent use of a weapon said she was visiting a Kenosha apartment on Tuesday afternoon where a 21-year-old man had brought a handgun. The woman, who a witness said had been drinking...

Put the cat down on the floor and hold my beer.
That is one sly cat
Why did she have her finger on the trigger?
But if she would have shot the cat, it would have made front page news in every paper in the USA....
“ The man, who was standing in a doorway, was shot in the thigh, authorities said. He left and went into another apartment, where police found him after responding to a 911 call, the Kenosha News reported.”
He didn’t go to the hospital - he went to another apartment…
Because the trigger turns on the laser! Duh!
That is known as "a clue".
Most gun accidents happen to people who have a propensity for not following rules.
The woman told police she thought the magazine had been taken out of the gun and said it “accidentally went off,” according to the complaint.

Maybe the magazine was removed. Bet someone didn’t clear the chamber. Well, they did... later... playing drunk later tag with the cat.
I suspect the gun was not bought through a regular dealer.
What kind of idiot allows a drunk woman to hold his gun?
And why was it loaded in that situation. Kinda reminds me of Terry Kath.
Thankfully the cat was not harmed in the shooting.

she thought the magazine had been taken out of the gun and said it “accidentally went off”
I don’t know about you but none of my guns accidentally go off. There has to be some human inter action to make it go bang.
In Kenosha dontcha know.
The cat used up one of its 9 lives. Only 8 left. The moron criminal with a holy thigh is not much of a bullet dodger. The cat has more sense and intelligence than those other 2 human dummies combined.
Me thinks there is more to the story.

Not on guns I’ve seen - there’s a separate button to turn it on. The four we have all have a separate button to turn the laser on.
likely Biden voters even if they didn't vote themselves
