Earlier today, TTAG editorialist Josh Grabow argued that gun rights should trump partisan politics. I don’t know about that. But I do know that Darwinism trumps everything. To wit this tragic tale from wnem.com: “Police say the victim and at least one other person were outside firing gunshots in celebration of the new year. The victim thought that all of the rounds had been fired in his gun. He then jokingly put the gun to his head and pulled the trigger.” By the same token, the video from TheKyleFrench’s YouTube Channel above. Bottom line: guns are dangerous. Also: guns are safe. Whether or not bad things happen to good people with functional firearms is usually down to the owner’s common sense and slavish adherence to the basic safety rules. Here’s hoping you stay safe in 2012, ’cause we need all the responsible gun owners we can get. [h/t to Daniel for the vid]
