Virginia Man Shoots Self ‘Accidentally’ While Driving
A Virginia man is in the hospital after he shot himself “accidentally” in the hand while driving in Portsmouth.
According to police, the unidentified man shot himself while sitting at a traffic light, ABC 13 reports.
When officers arrived on the scene, they discovered a man inside a silver Honda with a gunshot wound to his hand.
But, according to WAVY, the man told police he was moving his gun while in his vehicle as he waited at a stoplight. That’s when he said the firearm went off and struck him in the hand.
The man was taken to a local hospital for treatment,
Detective Misty Holley said the incident is considered completely accidental. Officers have filed no charges against the man. Because that would be holding the gun owner responsible for his actions and we can’t have that.
Watch courtesy of WAVY:
Don’t put your finger on the trigger unless your intent is to obliterate your target. I wonder if his trigger finer is OK. I hope not. Next time he could kill an innocent person.

Another NRA intellectual proving how valuable they are to a nation of laws.

Maybe if enough of them “clean their guns” and “accidentally” shoot themselves, there will finally be fewer idiot gun owners in this country. Notice I didn’t say all gun owners are idiots. If that was what I meant I would have said it.

A fine distinction, but a distinction none the less. Time will take care of the idiot ones, it will just take too long for the rest of us.

Both hands on the wheel at all times…

Thats what I call distracted driving.

That’s what happens when you try to spin your gun like a gunslinger and recreate the gunfight at the OK corral while stopped at a red light.
Larry Schmitt October 4th, 2014 at 18:21
There was a story here a few weeks ago about some loser who tried to do exactly that, and he dropped it, and he killed his sister. He wasn’t charged.
whatthe46 October 4th, 2014 at 18:33
i remember that.
neworleans878 October 4th, 2014 at 18:38
Until they start charging idiots like that, this reprehensible behavior will continue.

Why not focus so swimming pools which is the largest killer of children? Guy shoots himself through hand and you don’t think that’s punishment enough? Sounds like a bunch of hypocrites to me…. Of all the problems this country faces we are focusing on a negligent discharge and a global warming scam….we will get what we deserve…and no I don’t want your help, please find another cause….
jasperjava October 5th, 2014 at 06:37
You don’t want our help? Fine. You actually need professional help.
Swimming pools aren’t designed to kill people. Guns are.
“Global warming scam” = “I’m ignorant and proud of it.”

Guns are a tool just like a hammer. They shoot lead at whatever it is aimed at. In the shooting sports thousands of rounds are shot a day. The number one instrument used in 9o% of murders in the country is a “blunt object” I.e. Fist, hammers, etc. You can not legislate intent or stupidity…including waiting for 911,,,,stay in denial …
