When a Negligent Discharge is a Good Thing

OK, it’s awfully rare. But when an ND leads to the prevention of multiple murders, I’ll take the ND any time. Depending on the account you read, Ralph Lang was either loading his .38 or practicing with it in a Madison, WI hotel room when he negligently fired it through his door. The bullet also went through the door of the room across the hall, but no one was injured. When police arrived, he freely told them that his intent was to attack the local Planned Parenthood facility and another clinic in Milwaukee. Big surprise: Lang’s been ordered to undergo a competency evaluation. It would be nice if all would-be murderers were so incompetent with their guns and announced themselves in advance. Until that day, concealed carry seems a good option.
