[NEWS]12 year old girl's accidental school shooting.

[Foxscotch]

I am pretty confused about how this could happen on accident. it doesn't seem very likely to me that it would've actually been fired by dropping the backpack

Remember the cop who shot himself in the foot by...accident?

It happens.

uh first of all, no, and secondly probably not by dropping it

[Dreams_Of_Cheese]

well, it apparently was actually in the bag. like, there's a bullet hole and they pulled the gun out of the bag and everything. i guess if you had a lot of lose stuff in your bag and a loaded gun, you could move it in such a way that something in these would press on the trigger.

I guess you could say the kids skull was after this

cursed

why shes hiding a gun in her backpack in the first place

Gangsta stuff, yo


You gun nuts are ignoring the obvious. She likely shot it purposely or while playing with it, then told the story of it going off on its own

idk what model it was but it was probably one with an exposed hammer and no other safety functions besides blocking the hammer from falling which wasnt activated obviously.
i bet its a revolver though

12 year olds aren't that handicapped

but there is a hole in her backpack signifying that it did go off on its own inside of her backpack

a link to your profile could've sufficed

did you know that you can reach inside a backpack, with, like, your hands?

[Steve5451²]

i could see a pencil getting inside the trigger guard and pushing the trigger when the pack was dropped

the odds of it hitting somebody right in the head aren't exactly high but i do doubt a 12 year old could've intentionally lined it up within her backpack in the first place.

Accidental discharges are entirely possible. Dropping a pistol that has faulty design can cause it to discharge.

It makes sense that whoever owned this gun probably wasn't taking proper care of it if it ended up in a 12-year-old's backpack...

was she carrying a loving hi point or something
