Don’t point it at anything that you are not ok with shooting. Ever.

Don’t put your finger on the trigger until you have your target in your sights and you also know what’s near or behind what you are about to be shooting at.

Congrats. Be safe. Train regularly.

Trust me. I’ll be extremely careful.

My friend’s idiot friend was baked on some of that synthetic pot and was messing around with his loaded gun. he shot a hole through the TV and the wall.

I wasn’t there,thank the L-rd.

I know that guns aren’t toys and that you can’t wave ‘em around.

Good basic advice to which I would add:

Don't ever hold it sideways like the hoodlums you see in the movies. That may be their way of displaying how casual they are with a firearm (and, by extension, how little they value life), but it is appallingly stupid way to control where you shoot.

Accuracy is far more important than looks. There's nothing wrong with holding your wrist with your free hand to steady your aim. An inaccurate shot could not only mean missing the perp, but hitting someone innocent.
