Damn shame.
I was a "working guy" most of my earning life and they often reminded us at safety meetings that many, many serious accidents happen in what we see as "safe" situations. When we know we are "in the bite of the line" we tend to be careful.

Of course some will start ranting about "the gun issue". I don't have one. I'm just the kind of guy who would shoot himself in the thigh.

PS: Of course, like all sane men, I think women should not be allowed to even be near a gun. Razz

Yeah, but you didn't mention that the fatal shot came from a sniper round 150 yds. away shot by a Ford..

Mini vans should be outlawed!
People don't kill kittens, mini vans kill kittens.
Hey... Hold on... This is NOT a joking matter! Evil
