26 and from South Carolina. Unclear if the guy actually qualifies for a Darwin Award for removing himself from the gene pool before reproducing.

Because shooting at a watermelon wearing the vest would have been wasteful.

Taylor Ann Kelly, 18, has been charged with involuntary manslaughter, according to police. - -
Kelly could face up to five years in prison.
How would she even begin to answer “what are ya in for?”
“… well ya see, it was like this … we was conducting research…”

I know a lot of people here will point to the guns and drugs, but I think the moral of this story is that one should always buy an oversized vest.

Honest question by someone who has no clue: Can you use a vest after it has been, um, used? It seems to me that this was a bad plan in concept as well as execution. What a waste.

The sad part is some people will think this plan went awry when she missed the vest.

Guess we gotta update the NRA slogan to something like: “The only thing that stops a dumb guy with a gun is a good guy with bad aim.”

Friends don’t let friends play with guns.
Firearms are inherently dangerous devices that can never be made completely safe. Safety rules reduce the hazards when there is an appropriate use. The rest of the time they need to be locked up.
Photo ops, party entertainment, political statements, & so on all provide unnecessary exposure to lethal hazards. Like this very sad story of two young people who in hindsight made a bad choice. Sigh…

Natural Selection at work. This is simply Mother Nature culling the heard.

Most gun deaths are spur-of-the moment shootings:
- By gun-owners of themselves, intentionally
- By gun-owners of themselves, unintentionally
- By gun-owners of close family members
- By family members, of the gun-owner
- By family members (usually children) of themselves or friends, unintentionally
- Yeah, these Darwinian cases
So, the greatest number of gun violence cases were perpetrated out of rage or curiosity by previously law-abiding individuals, and would not have happened if the gun were not immediately available.
If you really want to be cruel about it: gun-owners tend to be a self-extinguishing sector of the gene pool.
