if someone unintentionally hits a small child with a car and couldn't see the child would he be liable for any crimes
“Consciously ignoring risk”
That pretty much sums it up..
My two best friends were drinking one night, and they had just gotten done eating a meal that my friend (we’ll call him “Friend #1”) had cooked for the both of them.
As they were about to leave, and go hit up the bars, they were both in Friend #1’s room. Friend #1 was changing his shirt before they left, and had his closet open. The upper section/compartment of his closet was open, and the contents were visible. This happened to be where Friend #1 had a handgun.
Friend #2 saw the handgun, and it peaked his interest.
Friend #2 said something along the lines of “Hey, let me see that real quick!”
Friend #1 says “Sure!
Here ya go, bro!”
He grabs the firearm, racks the slide, then removes the magazine and goes to hand the gun to Friend #2.
Did you catch the mistake that he made? (I mean, besides trying to handle a firearm while intoxicated, obviously.)
He tried to clear the firearm by racking the slide, and ejecting the chambered round, and THEN removing the magazine.
His intentions were to render
the handgun safe-but, he did the steps out of order.
What he SHOULD have done was:
1.) **Remove the Magazine FIRST.**
2.) Rack the slide and eject the cartridge from the chamber
3.) Rack the slide again a few more times, ensuring that the firearm was indeed unloaded and safe.
He did steps 1 and 2 out of order. So even though he had removed the magazine and ejected a round from the chamber, there was STILL a round in the chamber.
(This particular model of handgun did not have a magazine disconnect-not that it matters-you shouldn’t be relying on safety features of a firearm-you should be practicing proper firearm safety/handling in the first place.
Safety switches/buttons/built-in features are not a substitute for proper gun-handling..
The OG “safety” mechanism is the one behind your eyes & between your ears.
It’s your brain. Use it.)
The next mistake he made was having his finger on the trigger/inside the trigger guard as he went to hand the pistol to Friend #2.
The final and worst mistake that he made was failing to exercise muzzle-discipline..
As he went to hand the pistol to Friend #2, the muzzle of the firearm was pointed at Friend #2’s head…
Friend #1’s finger was rested on the trigger, and the trigger was pulled as a result. (because guns don’t just “go off”… they’re not sentient beings, they’re inanimate objects. Tools. Just like a circular-saw, or a jackhammer, or a nail-gun, or any other type of tool that has the potential to inflict bodily injury.)
And Friend #2 was shot in the head accidentally by Friend #1.
He didn’t mean it. He (friend #1) held no malice towards friend #2 whatsoever.
They were friends. Best friends. We all were…
If he could take it back, he would.
But, he can’t…
And now friend #2 is gone forever. 😪😢
And friend #1 is looking at anywhere from 1 to 8 years in prison.
All because of one moment in time, where he consciously ignored the risk of the situation.
Friend #1 now has nightmares nearly every night…
The day after, myself and another friend of ours went to help clean the blood and ‘chunks’.. out of friend #1’s carpet (obviously after police were able to take pictures and DNA samples and everything.)
Let me tell you-cleaning your friend’s blood and brain matter out of a carpet changes you… that’s something that never goes away…
In situations like this, you can’t blame the “tool”.
You can’t blame the gun.
You can’t blame the alcohol or drugs.
(If it would have been a car accident, you can’t blame the car.)
You can only blame the negligence of the parties involved…
For anyone reading this-
Please understand that Life is precious and fragile.
Please understand that life is not a game, and that your actions have consequences.
Very nice
Good
