This article is about a case of negligence. I'm sure the guy didn't mean to have a loaded shotgun there that could go off and injure people, but a person who is texting and driving or the inattentive driver who runs a red light or drifts over the center line is not intending to injure anyone either. The fact is that gun ownership is a politically charged issue and other situations that can cause injury through negligence are not. As is the case with most automobile wrecks and other "accidents," the "accident" would not occur without someone being negligent. Fatal wrecks are not usually reported on outside of the local area and this would not be either if disarming citizens was not one of the left's most "sacred cows."
