So, whaddya expect?
You know how a sport or activity gets ruined by popularity and all the bozos that popularity brings?
P.S. Five people shot at gun shows this weekend. The three shot by the bozo with the shotgun. A fourth shot himself while trying to unload his pistol. A fifth shot by a gun dealer who was inspecting a gun.

And what training would have prevented a gun dealer from having an AD? The man has probably bought and sold more guns than all of us here combined, probably handles 50 guns a day. He's an idiot and no amount of training will fix that. And there's just about nowhere in the US that you need a carry permit to carry a cased shotgun into a gun show. He was an idiot too. With the lawsuits these guys are looking at, they'll be lucky if they can ever afford a squirt gun in the future.
