Arizona man shoots friend in torso with new gun. Because that's what guns are for.

Oops.
Courtesy of ABC 15:  

A man was taken to the hospital from the Arizona State Fairgrounds after he was accidentally shot by his friend, according to the Arizona Department of Public Safety. 

DPS said a man was inspecting a semi-automatic handgun that he had recently purchased when he accidentally shot his friend in the torso. The victim was taken to a hospital and is expected to be OK. 

The Arizona Exposition and State Fair website says the Crossroads of the West Gun Show is taking place at the fairgrounds this weekend. 

Signs outside of the exhibit hall say 'No Loaded Guns' allowed. 

Well clearly this is a case of a good guy with a gun stopping a bad friend with a.....I don't know, attitude problem?

But hey the state fair is covered, after all they did put up a sign and everything.

Seriously what else could they have done? It's not like they can stop selling guns on a fairgrounds full of innocent people and children or anything.

    Gryphen,
    I'm no fan of gun shows, but this didn't happen during the state fair. It is a gun show AT the fairgrounds. However, I'm sure there were kids around because, you know, nothing says family like going to a gun show.

    Gotta love that Sarah Palin Amendment that says you have the right to shoot your best friend in the back and if he or she turns, git em in there stomach.

    It's interesting the rules that gun shows and the NRA itself has when their aficionados are in attendance yet they insist that loaded guns are just fine everywhere else. Double standard?

    Guns don't kill people. Stupid fucking people holding guns kill people. And also, guns kill people.

    These accidental shooting dimwits need to learn to handle and open carry like a Teabagging five year old! Jeebus!

    “And just last night we were in the laundry room doing laundry and I said, ‘Hey, Jake, what does Eddie the Eagle say? What do you do when you see a gun?’ And he spouted it out, the songs and stuff,” she recalled. “So, he got it.”

    Fiore added: “And if you look at that picture real close, you’ll see his finger is not on the trigger. That 5-year-old grandson of mine has total trigger control.”
