An Indiana man was hospitalized last week after accidentally shooting himself in the penis with an unlicensed handgun, police said in a press release.

“Dude, next time use a licensed gun.”
I like it. Or maybe: “Dude, next time use a licensed gun, and it won’t be a problem”
“You’ll shoot your testicles out, kid.” - Santa
Dang. Bet he wishes he got it licensed now.
“What’s this license that they speak of?”
That would be a “license to carry”. Indiana doesn’t require guns to be licensed.
“What does “unlicensed handgun” mean in Indiana? Do they have full registration?”
Misleading headline. A “license to carry” is required in Indiana. There is no gun licensing requirement.
(Can't believe it, 40+ responses, and no 'decocker'. Y'all are slacking...)
(Yes, I saw 'half-cocked'.)
Here in NE PA we had a similar incident last fall, guy was going to confront a dude that was putting the moves on his honey, borrowed a handgun (25 acp) and stuck it in his pant. The rest is, as they say, history.
Here is the story from the local news source...

(Probably not "Glock Appendix"... ;^)
If the state had blessed his gun ownership and he had been licensed this could not have happened.
All hail the state!
That made it hurt worse. “It’s just a flesh wound.”
That’s what I thought. Thanks for confirming.
From Indiana - didn’t know you had to have a license to own a gun - to carry concealed? Yes.
He’s officially a she now.
Chicago’s running scorecard on gun crime - the website “Hey Jackass” - has one category called the “Shot-in-the-Junk-O-Meter”. It currently has two entries, but it will fill up by the end of the year, especially once we hit prime weather for gunplay in the city. And by the end of the year it’s probable that at least some of the data in that entry will be self-inflicted
Here’s a matching video, all the action happens at 9.5487 seconds.

That's what happens when you don't license your guns.
You shoot your balls off.
Get out there and register them guns, people, we need all the balls we can keep.
Thank you for renewing my constant and eternal protest against stupid vapid people who wear sanitary napkins on their face while they crochet and sing hippie music.
Now alls you gotta do is help me stop my eyes from rolling over into the back of my head.
I would rather be Marvin in the back seat than have to listen to that whole song.
That’s one of two ways I’d want to go. Either in the arms of someone I love, or shot by a hydrogen cannon.
Hey. Whos gonna clean THAT up?
