Dont say such heresy, NorthernGent.

I once posted that I was shocked that Shotgun (that would be the vice-president) was so lacking in gun safety experience that generally teaches not to point a gun at anything one doesnt want to shoot.

Apparently, this is not good advice, and Shotgun's friend (the one with the buckshot in his face) was at fault for being there when Shotgun pulled the trigger.

It wouldn't stand up in a court of law. I can't imagine the defence lawyer of a man charged with armed robbery saying "it was nothing to do with my client, he just pulled the trigger, it was the dead bloke's fault as he was in the way which is basically begging for a bullet in the eye".............Good point "case dismissed". It's not going to wash is it.

While I was shouted down here, I am still sticking by what my rifle range instructor taught me when I was 8, which is to never point a gun (nail gun, whatever) at anything I didnt plan on putting a bullet (nail) in.

The set of things I would want to put a bullet or nail in does not actually include my naughty bits.

That is a wise path to take  On a brighter note, he now has the capacity to set up a one man travelling circus going around the world and selling himself as the one bollocked fool.  People will come from far and wide to stare at the space that used to house a bollock. Throw in a spot of fire eating and he'll make a fortune!

Just me, could be wrong, but there you go.
