If only there had been a good boy with a gun there to stop him.
@OhNoSheTwitnt The only good angle on this story is that his stupidity only caused injury to himself.
@OhNoSheTwitnt ‘Accident’. The dog had reasons
@OhNoSheTwitnt There is a surprising history of dogs shooting guns at people. "Man's best friend," indeed. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2015/10/27/a-dog-shoots-a-person-almost-every-year-in-america/
In the past five years, at least six Americans have been shot by dogs

Bad dogs with guns.

The Washington Post
@OhNoSheTwitnt Smart dog! Loaded the gun in the vehicle and took the safety off.

@OhNoSheTwitnt

Also, apparently the copy editor of that newspaper was also taken out in a freak accident, because that subtitle...dayum.

@OhNoSheTwitnt when asked how the dog was taking it, an officer involved replied "rough"
@OhNoSheTwitnt
I read somewhere, years ago, that in the west during the 1800s, many accidental shootings were the result of this same thing. Dogs setting off rifles/guns. Not sure where I read it, or how accurate it is, but things like this help me believe its truth.
@OhNoSheTwitnt Does "securing one's hunting rifle" mean nothing to these people
@OhNoSheTwitnt guns don't kill people *checks notes* uhh dogs kill people
@OhNoSheTwitnt
Do not give the NRA ideas. They’re already selling assault rifles for kids.

@OhNoSheTwitnt

The moral: Always listen to your dog when it asks to sit in front

@OhNoSheTwitnt Would not happen in MN.. why? cant have loaded gun..not in case in car... just sayn...DOPES..
@OhNoSheTwitnt at least he died with the liberty to bear arms…
@OhNoSheTwitnt And this is why you don't carry with one I.the chamber or let your dog crawl around in it.
@OhNoSheTwitnt Um. The deer community think that was the good boy with a gun. "Hero Dog Saves Averts Tragedy by Killing Mass Shooter with Own Gun".

@OhNoSheTwitnt

Did the dog have a license to hunt? Did the dog owner have a license to be so stupid as to put a loaded rifle in the back seat with his trigger happy dog? He should've bought better dog food for it. carry on

Part 1
Years ago a friend of mine loaned his 4wd truck to someone on the premise that it would be returned in the same condition. Needless to say the guy called him and said he had hit "an old lady who had pulled out in front of him." My friend went to the body shop to see what was going on. They were putting a new tailgate on and guaranteed it would be indistinguishable. My friend asked about the old lady,
@OhNoSheTwitnt
Part 2
the body shop owner said," I don't know about that, but we pulled branches from the radiator."
The real story was the guy took his dog hunting and put the dog in the back with his shotgun.
Dog fires shotgun, blows tailgate off the truck, the guy runs off the road into a tree
