Bang bang BANG

Today, and for years, we've had an old rifle on the wall in my dad's office that his grandad brought back from WW2. Purely on a whim because I was bored I took it down, aimed it at random things making "bang bang" noises. It was still loaded and now my dad's university diploma has a big big hole in it. FML

I'd ask "What were you thinking?," but you weren't!

First rule of firearm safety: treat every gun as if it were loaded! Now you’ve learned the lesson the hard way.

I see someone never learned basic firearm safety. Your lucky the diploma is only thing the bullet hit.

I don't care if you have a fully disassembled firearm on front of you. It IS still LOADED. That is the only mindset to have.

Why are you pulling the trigger? You're lucky you didn't put a big hole in your dad!

Well, I'd say the person who hung it there without making it safe is at fault. While it is not clever to point guns and pull the trigger, unfortunately not everyone grew up with guns and not everyone has had gun safety training. If you didn't pull that trigger, maybe someone else would have and possibly killed someone. Or the gun would have fallen off the wall and killed someone. It really was just a matter of time. You were just the unlucky guy, but at least now the gun is safe. The diploma can be repaired or become a conversation piece.
