I have worked with lifetime members of the NRA who secretly confess that they have unintended discharges of their rifles or shotguns.
Man, I hate when that happens. |

Even if the "good guy with a gun" myth were true we'd still be largely out of luck with the NRA, the loudest and most prominent members of which usually come off as violence fetishists or pants-shitting cowards.
Any good guys who might exist in that organization have kept a disappointingly low profile so far. |

Orignally I saw this as a Bloomberg article, but since they're not 'Real News' I tracked down the Reuters version instead.
