Holy shit, what lunacy is this????

Kansas bro. Common sense is in short supply.

And Vermont?

Wouldn't have happened if the man's leg had had a gun.

Haha, amazing!

You Win

 

[hoola]

There are numerous stories of police officers shooting themselves, too. Unfortunately, training is only useful if people actually respect the power of a firearm. I live in a state that allows people to obtain concealed carry permits fairly easily and I havnt heard of any issues yet, but it is completely illegal to even own a switchblade. It makes no sense. I would like to get a Ruger LCP or SR1911 someday, but I wouldn't carry it with me.

 

[The Lamonster]

oh wow hahaha

 

[TheJLC]

How the heck did he shoot herself? Was the gun in a holster or just freely in his pocket?

 

[zeemumu]

Why would you proclaim that? Pity?

"I crashed my car! I just got my license!"

 

[SaganIsGOAT]

Glad that we can now be protected by these untrained concealed carry citizens! Y'all are doing gods work!

Seriously though, no training required? My eyes fell out of my skull reading that. Disgusting

 

[XboxTwo]

Don't keep one in the chamber. Use a safety. Etc. Alternatively don't bring it to the movies with you.

 

[SaganIsGOAT]

Should have carried two guns so the second gun could have shot the first gun's bullet.

Wouldn't have happened if the man's leg had had a gun.

Lol 😂😂😂

Perfect

 

[A.D. Skinner]

So USA recently changed laws to get guns with zero training? Amazing.

 

[pigeon]

Is this guy carrying condition zero, or is he playing with his gun idly while watching a movie?

 

[THRILLH0]

Serves the moron right and he should be charged with a crime.

 

[fallengorn]

So USA recently changed laws to get guns with zero training? Amazing.

It's just Kansas. Try not to lump the entire country into one state's idiocy.

 

[deltatheta]

Shouldn't you be getting fines and jail time for firing a gun in public?

 

[shem935]

So USA recently changed laws to get guns with zero training? Amazing.

This is Kansas who recently made this change. The board of regents is also going to make it completely legal to have guns on any public college campus by 2017 so we will see how well those laws work together.

only thing stopping a bad limb with a gun is a good limb with a gun

 

[PeakPointMatrix]

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I wish that bullet had non-fatally shot someone. I actually really wish these morons had more and more accidental misfires in public like this. They need to become an utter laughing stock and embarrassment to the country, so they might take a moment and reflect on their stupidity.

But lol, I'm the stupid one for thinking they actually have the capacity to self-reflect...

 

[shaowebb]

Wouldn't have happened if the man's leg had had a gun.

 

[LosDaddie]

😂

Seriously though, he needs to be charged with endangering the public

 

[Hex]

So in America some idiot standing or sitting beside you could be be firing his gun accidentally at any moment. Good to know.

Here in St Petersburg last year sometime there was a lady in Starbucks who had a gun in her purse and when she put her purse down her gun went off and shot her friend behind her in line in the leg.

Link just in case

 

[Tertullian]

Wouldn't have happened if the man's leg had had a gun.

lol9

 

[Littlefang]

So what happens now, does that guy get his gun taken away? Please tell me he isn't allowed to carry a gun in public anymore because he's that careless with it.

 

[Any Questions]

I wonder what movie they were watching.

I thought this too... Was gonna post asking if anybody knew.

 

[RELAYER]

Home of the brave indeed.
The very brave.

 

[HK-47]

As if there werent enough reasons not to go to Kansas.

 

[SaganIsGOAT]

Amazing

 

[Currygan]

i love living in the wild west.

I think the majority of gun carrying people weren't that dumb in the wild west tbh

 

[Akuun]

The couple said they support the state's current law which went into effect July 1, allowing gun owners to conceal and carry without requiring any training or having a permit.

dafuk

You need training to use cars and certain kinds of power tools. But guns? Nah, just pick one up and off you go.

 

[Shining Sunshine]

Wait, they passed a law that literally encourages more guns on the street?

 

[CloudyTuba]

The couple said they support the state's current law which went into effect July 1, allowing gun owners to conceal and carry without requiring any training or having a permit.

So Kansas is fucking stupid and so are many of its residents. Got it.

 

[glow]

That must've been painful. Tragic

Spoiler

that he missed his femoral artery.

 

[borborygmus]

Geez, guess I will have to buy a gun if I plan to live in the US.

That's your takeaway from this?

 

[Xando]

Can't even imagine sitting in a cinema wondering if the guy next to you has a gun.

American gun laws are a joke.

What do you even need the gun for in public places that are not a shooting range or something like that.

 

[Fusebox]

That's one well regulated militia member right there hahahaha

 

[Lionel Mandrake]

I like how he added the "I just got my concealed and carry," after exclaiming he'd been shot. It's like something from a Will Ferrell movie.

 

[SlickShoesRUCrazy]

Can I do a nelson haha gif? I'm going for it.

 

[TAJ]

Were those really his exact words? Learn to speak 'Murican, moran.

 

[Pyramid head]

Guy was probably stroking his gun through his jacket, fantasizing about an 'active shooter' incident unfolding in that theatre and his chance to become a real hero by firing his tool of justice at muzzle flashes in a dark room.

 

[DontBeThatGuy]

"The couple said they support the state's current law which went into effect July 1, allowing gun owners to conceal and carry without requiring any training or having a permit."

Every time I see this, I cringe so fucking hard. I can't stand this shit, and I don't care if you're trained or not, this shouldn't be a thing.

 

[Piggus]

Conceal carry without a license or training is the dumbest thing ever. What the hell.

 

[Escape Goat]

So what happens now, does that guy get his gun taken away? Please tell me he isn't allowed to carry a gun in public anymore because he's that careless with it.

Nothing. The article said they treated it as a medical emergency.

great first post lol

 

[Jonm1010]

The state's current law which went into effect July 1, allowing gun owners to conceal and carry without requiring any training or having a permit.

And this is the society the NRA wants for America.

 

[Jonm1010]

So USA recently changed laws to get guns with zero training? Amazing.

Recently? Most everywhere in the country doesnt require formal training to buy guns. Many allow open carry or concealed carry without any training either.

 

[TalonJH]

IT IS MY GOD DAMNED RIGHT YOU HIPPY LIBERAL!!

Seriously, when I think of Kentucky I first thing of intelligent and well balanced. A perfect place for not needing permits and education.

KS is Kansas.

OT: Would this really be the person you want to return fire in a dark theater or you know...sitting near you at all.

 

[Malreyn]

They should allow people to operate motor vehicles "without training or a license".

Driving is a privilege, not a "constitutional right"...big difference in the eyes of the law

 

[Jonm1010]

KS is Kansas.

Tomayto, tomahto TBH.

Driving is a privilege, not a "constitutional right"...big difference in the eyes of the law

A shitty law.
