POLICE in a Vancouver suburb reminded residents it was not a good idea to play with a loaded gun while using the bathroom, after a man accidentally shot himself.

A 21-year-old North Vancouver man was facing numerous weapons charges after he shot off one of his fingers while apparently playing with a gun on New Year's Day, according to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.

Was it the finger he uses to count to eleven?

You got to know when to holster and know when to unholster.

When guns are outlawed, only outlaws will use toilets.

What do you think are the odds that alcohol was involved?

Worse than my nephew putting a hole in a water pipe on New Year's Eve while shooting a gun into the ground outdoors.

Someone needs to remind the Canadian Police that it is not a good idea to play with a gun (loaded or unloaded) no matter where you are.

Man has gun accident in toilet

Some people take cliches too far as in "shooting the $hit."

Wonder if he bit a cat?

Another outlaw with a gun, apparently. I'd think Vancouver would have draconian handgun laws.

And the scene from "A Christmas Story" pops into my head.

"You'll shoot your eye out!"

Only this time it's, "you'll shoot your finger off!"

Maybe he thought that something in the terlit was going to attack him.

Better to shoot then flush, rather than flush then shoot.
