Fun With Guns: Mother-shooting Epidemic

March 01, 2014 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

This time it’s Nevada.

Twenty six year old decides to show off his new gun to his father.  Proceeded to prove it works by shooting his mother.

The woman’s 26-year-old son was pulling the gun out of its holster to show his father when it went off, shooting the mother in the right thigh, according to Lt. Abel Ortiz with the Lyon County Sheriff’s Office.

The woman was transported via medical helicopter to Renown Regional Medical Center in Reno at about 3:40 p.m.

No one was taken into custody and the names of the family members have not been released.

So, if your son was planning on dropping by after the gun show, maybe this isn’t the weekend to do it.

Thanks to Frank for the heads up.

    I was just reminded that it takes more training to be a licensed cosmetologist than to be a licensed concealed handgun carrier.

    I’m sure we all want to die pretty, but not so soon, if you please.

    There should be a national list of morons who shoot themselves and/or others, just like the sex offenders list. Who wants to live next to one of them?

  4. Well, this is the second incident of a son shooting a mother in the leg recently. So for Mother’s day, I suggest good gun-totin sons buy their Mothers some bulletproof greaves to put on just in case. Nothing says love like body armor.

    You’ve picked up on the right descriptive term, Mal. Good for you. Incident. Not accident.

    Shout out to my Mom, my annual flowers and chocolates might not be original, but you have my promise that won’t shoot you on Mothers Day or any other day.

  8. I am not anti-gun but the proliferation of hand guns is very troubling. In my experience most people mishandle hand guns. Part of my gun safety lessons by my Grandfather, father and uncle was- never point a gun at anything you do not intend to shoot. We used to live with “wet weather” creek behind the house and friends from town would come out with their latest pistola to shoot in the creek. I would watch with trepidation as these fools would have their guns out and pointing them at my children, their own, parts of their bodies- all the while with a finger in the trigger guard.

    I may not be anti-gun but I am anti-gun nut. And it wouldn’t bother me much if they were all melted down and made into something more useful.

  9. Hell, yes, his name should be released and this country should be keeping a national list of people who shoot their own mothers no matter how. Ten to one all the neighbors know and the word is out on the street anyway. Note to neighbors: in this kinda case, sharing is caring!

    This stuff won’t stop or diminish until the careless idjits who shoot people are named and shamed.

    Can you imagine these guys in a real war? Shooting their fellow-soldiers far more often than the enemy?

    Right to carry does not mean the right to shoot people accidentally. Or people who are not actually, AT THAT INSTANT, in the opinion of bystanders, trying to kill you. Yelling at you, standing up to you, calling you names =/= trying to kill you. (She mutters…)
