Not necessarily in the US. Just as likely to be a common-or-garden variety dickhead. As it was pink, and apparently had the safety off, making it an accessory, the latter is more likely. Yeah OK,a LOT of career criminals are also really stupid.
In Australia,it is almost impossible to legally obtain a hand gun and an offence to carry one unless secured in a holster even with a permit.. You can forget about semi automatics and full automatic rifles.
Purely unrelated of course,we have one of the lowest rates of gun deaths in the world. The US is fourth highest,another unrelated coincidence.
I think I'll stick with today's phrase 'cognitive dissonance'.
And the statistics related to armed criminals in Australia are zero! Awesome!
