[–] makeshift0546@lemmy.today -3 points 3 months ago* (2 children) Accidental gun discharges are pretty rare. In the hundreds a year. And they are almost always with negligent gun owners storing a loaded gun not in a lock box. It's not a mistake, it's willful ignorance by dumb ass fuck trumpets. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Bluescluestoothpaste@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 months ago (1 child) Bro we're humans we're all negligent at some point, you are trying to distance yourself from these negligent gun owners but you actually can't because your human and you make mistakes too. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] makeshift0546@lemmy.today -1 points 3 months ago (1 child) .000625%(napkin math) of gun owners experience an accidental gun discharge each year. It just doesn't happen that often without gross negligence 🤷♂️. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Bluescluestoothpaste@sh.itjust.works 1 point 3 months ago* (1 child) Fair enough, but i guess yeah im scared of guns and i dont like having the right to carry one. Because any of the other 400 million Americans have the same right and they might be grossly negligent and then i end up the victim of someone's dog accidentally discharging a shotgun from the car in the lane next to me. I like shooting guns i go a few times a year to the shooting range, it's always a good day and i feel good about knowing im ready to use one. I still just don't need one in my home and I don't think my neighbors need to be walking around with them either. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] makeshift0546@lemmy.today -1 points 3 months ago* (1 child) Hey you do you and we all feel how we feel. But are you that afraid of lightning? Because we're talking the same percentages.or kids drowning in a pool. Gun violence sucks and it's dumb that we can't have any sort of middle ground on the conversation, but getting accidentally shot is so far down on that list of things that will kill you. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Bluescluestoothpaste@sh.itjust.works 1 point 3 months ago (1 child) It's like 40 lightning deaths a year versus 10,000 gun deaths, that's why these conversations can't happen. Gun deaths is the number one killer of children, more than all diseases combined even. You can't begin to understand where im coming from if you won't even take gun deaths seriously. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] makeshift0546@lemmy.today -1 points 2 months ago (1 child) No. You're conflating with non accidental discharge.
