Thread title should be STUPID DOG OWNER .
kansas dog meets alec baldwin.Some basic gun safety rules weren't followed.
I could see it happening. If the rifle were laying long ways, muzzle pointed towards the passenger door and the dog was back there doing the hoky poky and either angled the gun so that it pointed towards the passenger (low mid section) or knocked it off so that it landed on some misc stuff, angling it up and forward, then stepped on the trigger well area... It's got to be a case of "all the holes in the swiss cheese lining up" sort of thing. Of course it SHOULDN'T have happened to begin with. I guess we'll all just use it as a teaching model of what not to do.most states prohibit loaded long guns in any vehicle. i’m trying to imagine just how a dog’s paw could discharge a properly functioning, normally configured, bolt action rifle, or any firearm for that matter. a normal long gun positioned in a vehicle’s rear seat area is most likely laid horizontally lengthwise along the seat with the muzzle necessarily pointed outwards to one vehicle side, not pointed at a passenger’s back seated in the front. something isn’t right here, but it’s a more intriguing story than the “dog ate my homework.”
Neither does cars and stupid people either.One more case of "Guns and stupid don't mix."
