Man Fatally Shoots Self While Teaching Girlfriend Lesson on Gun Safety

By Chad Garrison in Press Release of the Day, Stupid Crimes & Misdemeanors
Monday, Sep. 21 2009 @ 3:01PM
Given the name or the victim and the stupidity of the following incident, you'd almost think this story was made up.


Then again, it did occur in Jefferson County, Missouri.

Today Jeff-Co Sheriff Oliver "Glenn" Boyer reports that 40-year-old James Looney accidentally shot himself to death last Friday, September 18, while teaching his girlfriend a lesson on firearm safety.

The incident occurred in a residence in Imperial -- about 20 miles south of St. Louis. According to witnesses, Looney's teaching method involved him placing the gun to his head and asking his girlfriend if the gun would go off.


Looney apparently did this with two other firearms and varied safety mechanisms, before the last one actually fired into his head. He was transported to an area hospital, where he was pronounced dead the next morning.


And the kicker? Witnesses say Looney was going to take his girlfriend to the shooting range the next day, but insisted on firearm safety the day prior.


Continue on to see the full press release, courtesy of the Jefferson County Sheriff.

Yeah I know but still it's a bit too sad for me to laugh. :\

The three.

It's perfectly okay to laugh too, Sakura.

While you're right PB, I have to agree with Sakura that it just feels wrong to laugh at death =/


My life is currently bears and Jojos and everything is great.

That's almost painfully ironic.

...When Larry the reploid accountant goes maverick of his own accord, he's certainly formidable during tax season, but he isn't going to provide X the challenge needed to make him grow as a warrior and reach his potential.

The lesson here is not to point a gun at one's head. Which should be a rather obvious assessment, but apparently not.
