2. This proves that lawbreakers will ignore traffic laws.

So ....such laws are worthless and are only an inconvenience to the law abiding......

So ...... lawbreakers will also ignore more/any gun laws.

3. If only the neighbors had been armed, so they could have shot themselves as well.

4. It discharged?

I love it when they blame the gun for going off. It malfunctioned. It discharged. Damn guns seem to have minds of their own.

I do applaud the asshat for shooting himself instead of his mean ol' neighbors.
