Sure, there are definitely people who don't need one and don't treat it with the deadly seriousness that is absolutely necessary to always stay safe. I think that anybody who owns a gun should have to have mandatory safety training, but that's another subject entirely. Anyway, given that about 1/3 of all Americans own a gun of some sort (source), these incidences are occurring with a very, very small number of gun owners.
