Here’s a local story in today’s news:
WESTBOROUGH — Police seized a rifle and two handguns from a home on Fisher Street Monday night after they said the owner accidentally fired his AK-47 assault rifle and hit a window at Armstrong Elementary School.
He accidentally fired his AK-47, thinking it wasn’t loaded? How about he negligently fired his AK-47. I don’t own a gun, and I never want to own a gun, but I know that you always — always! — check for ammo when handling a firearm. Either he intentionally fired the assault rifle in his house, or he did it unintentionally, due to carelessness. Either way, this idiot shouldn’t be allowed to own guns.
