Every good, decent family needs an easily accessible cowbell or tam-tam. When you’re arguing with the ones you love and things become a little bit heated, you can make a point by hitting the cowbell or tam-tam. Hell, you could even throw the cowbell at the tam-tam. It makes a hell of a sound and everyone gets to keep his or her face.

Some thoughts come to mind. One, guns are really dangerous. Two, yet another example of how having a gun in the home can lead to dangerous and lethal escalations of domestic disputes. Bottom line, having a gun in your home is NOT a neutral event, it brings with it significant and real liabilities. Gun owners need think long and hard whether the liabilities outweigh what they perceive as the benefits.

When cowbells are outlawed, only outlaws will have cowbells. You’ll pry my tam-tam from my cold dead hand.

Another “accidental” weapon discharge by a gun-fondler. She did make a point: IQ tests should be required in addition to background checks for all these 2nd Amendment nutjobs.

Uh, I think she made it – people should not use loaded firearms as visual aids, especially during an argument.

I’m from Michigan, not that far away for Fremont Township (no such town as Waterman), and I’m here to tell ya, gun-nuttery and alcohol go together fit together like mama and papa (or like mama and mama, if you prefer :slight_smile: )

To the NRA, “accidental shooting” = acceptable collateral damage in the war to provide every able-bodied citizen with an assault rifle.
