Freckled Fox *accidentally* shot by husband.

[Eagles]

WAT.

Jesus Mary and Saint Joseph.

[lilafowler]

Holy crap.

[nextbigthing]

What the hell? Who doesn't empty a gun before cleaning it?

[TR]

Ian she the one whose husband died semi-recently too?

[tacoflavoredkisses]

Man, those poor kids must have been terrified.

[BaliHai]

Oh shit.

[jeaniebueller]

I have nothing nice to say. Her explanation of what happened and her concern about how her husband may not regain full use of her arm, with no real commentary on her own injuries is pinging my radar for some reason.

Yes. I feel so bad for her kids-they were there when it happened!

[darthnbjenni]

Wow. I wonder what kind of gun it was. I've used several that my husband owns and it's very, very hard to "accidentally" pull the trigger (as in, you have to turn the safety off, pull the gun cocker thingy back, then press the trigger very hard - both hands for me to do it). Not saying accidents can't happen, but still. I'm glad there seems to be other witnesses that were there, though.

It also sounds like they (the couple) had been having a rough couple of weeks leading up to this and her pulling some stuff from the blog. Coincidence?? Yeah, right.

[VillainV]

This is so very strange. The incident, sure, but the way she describes it just seems....off.

Yes, last June. In September she announced on her blog that she remarried.

I noticed that too. Richard's last post seems to have disappeared.

Yeah, she mentioned that he was not happy about something so they were going to pull back for a while. Uh huh...

I don't know why I am so intrigued by them! The kids are adorable though.

She re-married 84 days after he passed, and has 5 kids ages 5 and under. As much as I try to be understanding that her grieving process is not mine to judge, there is a lot that makes me uneasy about the whole thing.

Jesus Christ. I can't take all the comments of, "Accidents happen!" 

I'm laughing at one of the Reddit comments that says, "Here's a whole side of the Internet who will ream you if you turn your kid forward facing in his car seat before he turns 11. But guns sometimes just accidentally shoot people!"

:?

[oliviapope]

"Accidentally discharged" is an oxymoron.

I'm assuming this guy had absolutely no idea how to clean a gun and therefore shouldn't have fucking tried. That is so...stupid.

There's one lady in the comments pointing out how stupid all of the excuses are. I'm going around liking all of her posts.

[rachers]

That is terrifying. Holy crap.

[pinkeggs]

WOW.

This is insane. Thank goodness none of the kids were hurt. This story is incredibly fishy, as is the entire situation with the new husband. I hope she and the kids are OK.

[jeaniebueller]

Going down the rabbit hole on the reddit thread and its interesting. Eek about that Pinterest board. I hope she is okay.

[tamarindy]

Most appropriate comment I read in this mess: "This relationship is destined for a Dateline special."

It is horrifying that people can fangurl SO HARD that they dismiss this as "things happen." I literally read a post on her FB that said "no one could have prevented this."

We are truly living in some fucked up times.

Everywhere other than her FB is full of people commenting on what an idiot he was, how a gun should be cleaned, making sure the chamber is empty and oh yeah, keeping your fucking finger off the trigger.

I do not think it was an accident.

Oh, what's this about?

[claudiajean]

Even aside from all the other strangeness, I don't understand the logistics of how someone would be holding a gun where a bullet would enter their arm but then also hit someone just entering the room.

If her story is true, at least she went to get him for dinner instead of sending one of the kids. It would have been much worse.

She recently pinned an article about surviving an abusive relationship, or something like that.

She's deleting negative comments.

She pinned stuff about escaping abusive relationships about a week ago. Then someone mentioned it and the board disappeared.

We still make excuses for behavior when there are none.  No one wants to say maybe she rushed into things or maybe this was not an "accident". I am not saying she did or didn't, but even if she did it does not make her a horrible person. It makes her human. It is ok to admire or like someone who fucks up every once and a while. I don't trust perfection. lol
