Man Exercises Second Amendment Rights Against His Own Junk

Posted by Jim Nintzel on Mon, Aug 8, 2011 at 3:24 PM

The Arizona Republic reports that a Chandler man shot himself in the dick with his girlfriend's pink handgun:

As Chandler residents Joshua Seto, 27, and his fiancée, Cara Christopher, walked over to a Fry's Food Store for refreshments, he tried securing her pink handgun in the front waistband of his pants.

The gun fired, striking Seto's penis and continuing through his left thigh. The bleeding started immediately and was heavy, according to police dispatch recordings released Sunday.

"He is still conscious, there is just a lot of blood," Christopher , 26, told 9-1-1 operators and dispatchers.

Good thing only responsible Arizonans carry guns around after we loosened up those concealed-weapon restrictions.

I can't believe this hasn't already happened in the middle of a legislative session.

It turns out that the mandatory training that is no longer required to carry a concealed weapon did not actually teach one how safely to conceal a weapon.

okey dokey, Jim Nintzel. More fun with guns up in Maricopaland:

or consider this: "We just had drug paraphernalia in the bathrooms that kids use. Just because it's a relatively well-off community, does not mean bad things can't happen and don't," he said.

I would like to point out the law that allows him to carry open in your waistband is 100 years old.

I use the Tucson Weekly when I am cleaning my pistol. It absorbs the oil well.

Perhaps "Tommy" could use some of that oil to lubricate the space where the brain would normally go?? Since when are ANY of the individual rights enumerated in the Bill of Rights ABSOLUTE? You can't go into a stadium and yell "fire", cause a stampede, people hurt trying to flee, etc. But.... Second Amendment rights.... WHOLE different story. We are a society AWASH weapons. Ask police in large cities about ABSOLUTE rights and the tasks they face regarding guns. It's funny how the gun lobby sees itself as patriotic when perhaps SELFISH would be a better label

Wow real mature, insult people that have different opinions. Funny how everyone preaches about it being a free country but insult other people for having different beliefs or opinions that they find different. If you don't like the laws gain a bigger political ground to change them or move somewhere else. If you can't afford, don't get mad about being the minority in political beliefs.
