It's Just Not Going Away

It's a good thing that so many people and news outlets and bloggers are now paying attention to the proliferation of guns.   The DailyKos blog site is tracking news stories about a ridiculously long list of "gun fails" in which people have shot themselves, friends, neighbors, pets, and floors by accident or incompetence or both.   Some of these incidents are actually funny in a sick sort of way, such as the Indiana case of a police officer responding to an emergency call to find a drunk guy with a pistol and shotgun, a jug of urine, along with a bunch of shot up television sets.  Some are more disturbing, like the guy hired by a Michigan school as a guard after the Newtown murders, who left his pistol in a restroom "for a few moments."  Read over this list at DailyKos and remember these people are all around us.
