A man taking his trash to an apartment dumpster was shot and killed after he slipped while walking and the gun he was carrying went off accidentally, according to San Antonio police.

    Thank God he was safe from whatever threat he was so afraid of that he thought he needed a loaded gun to take his trash to the end of his driveway.

    I’m so fucking glad that I’m not so terrified of everything and everyone that I think I need a loaded gun 24 hours a day to protect myself.

        That’s what you get for talking trash to your trash!

      His biggest threat was himself.

      Glad he took care of that.

      Now he is no longer a threat to himself.

        Doubt it. While there are wild areas with actual dangerous animals and it’s prudent to have a way to protect yourself, I find it hard to believe I’d ever be in such fear of the place I live to carry a weapon at all times.

          Okay then, here’s a better one: try living in Gaza, Israel, or Ukraine and you’d delete your comment.

            Ah, ok, that explains it …. The guy was taking his trash to the curb in San Antonio, in an active war zone. He needed a hand gun to protect himself from incoming artillery shells and anti-personel drones. That sounds much more sane

              Likely, that moron believed Texas was being “invaded by the Queers” and Darwin’ed himself as a favor to all of us.

            Yeah but he wasn’t in those areas was he.

            It’s like saying he should be wearing cold weather gear because in some parts of the world it’s freezing. Yeah but if you’re not in those parts of the world it’s a pointless comment isn’t it.

        I’m assuming you’re referring to wildlife and not suggesting that Canadians are just vicious
