    This could have been much worse if it occured in a state that did not allow concealed carry...

    I'm neutral. But look at the number one causes of death... Globally. In the top ten is also Malaria. I don't want a mosquito to take me out. sneaky little things...

    It's the human heart. Heart attacks kill the most people everyday.

    Just to keep the facts straight, isn't it fetuses that are killed- not babies?

    fetuses are in the womb. not alive independent of the mother. again, does not compare.

    let's talk about the figures in the post i made. only 230 justifiable homicides in 2010. kinda destroys your argument of self defense, doesn't it?

    Do chicken eggs apply to the number?
    I read a statistic that 87.9993 % of statistics are made up.

    There are no sources or regulations I find to be reliable or accurate when looking up statistics for anything.
    Maybe an Almanac.

    But an article written about a a gun owner that stops a rampage, I can trust. There were witnesses.


    The Violence Policy Center.... who are they? What did they study? Where's this center? Or is that a flyer some kid printed in his/her basement?

    for every story like the one in the op there are countless ones like this from today...

    Wife accidentally kills husband during gun lesson: Police

    David Chang, NBCPhiladelphia.com

    A fun night for a Pennsylvania couple turned deadly after police say the woman accidentally shot and killed her husband.

    On Friday, around 9 p.m., police say Michael Wanko, 43, and Michele Wanko, 42, were “casually drinking” vodka and lemonade together inside their home on West Roland Road in Parkside, Penn. Around 3:30 a.m., police say the couple went into their basement so that Michael could show his wife how to use a semiautomatic pistol. The couple went into a work room where several weapons were kept inside a safe.
    “He took several of the weapons out, handguns and was demonstrating to her how the weapon worked as far as taking the magazine out, making sure it was safe, and how to pull the slide back,” said Parkside Police Chief John Egan.

    As Michael reached into a safe to grab a gun, police say Michele picked up another gun and pulled the slide back, just as her husband had instructed her.
    “When she let go of the slide, the weapon went off,” said Chief Egan.

    Michael was struck in the upper chest. At the time, police say, the couple’s 2-year-old and 5-year-old sons were sleeping upstairs. Police say the 5-year-old was awakened by his mother’s frantic screams as she called 911.
    Police arrived at the home around 4 a.m. Michael was taken to Crozer-Chester Medical Center where he was pronounced dead shortly after.

    Michele was charged with involuntary manslaughter, aggravated assault and possessing an instrument of crime. She was processed at the Chester City Jail and released on $250,000 unsecured bail. Her two children are currently staying with relatives.

    Police say the gun Michele used was turned over to the Delaware County ballistics unit where investigators would “ascertain if the weapon malfunctioned or if it operated properly.”

    Neighbors described the Wanko family as “nice people” who always did things with their children and were well respected throughout the neighborhood. Chief Egan says police were called to their home a year ago for a domestic dispute but that it was only “a shouting match between the two.” No one was charged in that incident.
