President Hubbard states. “George Hickey had an accident take place when a gun discharged in his hands. Anybody who’s around firearms at all knows that guns do accidentally go off.”


Well, the media is always telling us that guns kill people, but who knew that an uppity gun decided to kill JFK! If they had told us that sooner, we might have passed “reasonable gun control” already! /s

Wondered why my firearms just kept going off at 3 am. /idiot Been shooting for over 30 years. Never had one "accidentally go off." Guess I am just special. BTW, to reiterate, the author is an idiot.

Wow, I had to actually read the article to make sure that was an actual quote from this moron. No, anybody who’s around firearms at all DOES NOT know that guns do accidentally go off. In fact, quite the opposite.

I’m going with dumbest theory yet as well.

That’s not what the authors say happened-—they say Hickey was standing up on the rear seat flipping his safety off and getting ready to turn and shoot toward TBD but a he did so his foot slipped off the seat. It didn’t just “go off.”
