How fucking depressing for all parties. Can you imagine that being the story of your life? All the shit you struggle through to make it to age thirty seven, get married, find enough success to move to Scandinavia, and then you get shot in the fucking face by your father in law’s twitchy fingers over a prank you probably decided to do thirty seconds previously I suppose it’s no more trivializing a way to die than tripping over your shoelaces into traffic or something, but so much more avoidable. I can’t imagine how the spouse feels
You shouldn't be allowed to own a gun if you're shooting at things you haven't verifiably seen first. That should be manslaughter. If you fear that much you should start off with maybe a baseball bat and when you grow into bravery you get a gun.
