Today, while sitting in a waiting room, a man assured me "The safety's on" after he handed his kid his BB gun. A minute later, I practically had a hole in my foot. FML

why the hell did someone have a hb gun in any type of waiting room?

Was it a hospital waiting room? That would be convenient.

I'm pretty sure BBs can't put a hole in your foot.

If they can blow the heads off of birds, then they can make a hole in someone's foot. It's a matter of how much you've pumped it.

Also the kid was practically right next to him.

why would they bring a BB gun in a waiting room in the first place? that's not safe, those should only be used in a big open area with no other people around. That sucks.

First off why did you not check to see if the safety was really on? Second off why did you pull the tigger? Third why would you aim it at your foot. Sorry but YDI. If you have no knowledge of firearms you should not even handle it or taken it. Even you did you should know enough to not pull the tigger even if the safety was supposedly on.

It was the guy's son, not OP, hence the "he handed his kid his BB gun" part. Learn to read, yeah?

#75 yea my fault. I read the FML too quickly. My apologies.

Don't be redick-er-rous!!! Tiggers aren't pulled... They bounce!

"Kid, you'll shoot your eye out...." Sounds like someone was too young to understand the rule of firearm safety that says "always point the muzzle in a safe direction" as well as the one that says "always keep your finger off the trigger until you are ready to fire." Yeah, it's only a BB gun, but.... Keep yer booger-hook off the bang-switch.

Why does he have a BB gun with him?

Why would anyone let their kid have a BB gun if they're that reckless with it? That's probably what got him in the waiting room in the first place.

Was it a mental hospital waiting room?

It's idiots like this guy who cause the government to try and outlaw guns, dumb asses who don't know what the **** their doing. I was taught to shoot at 8 years old and how to correctly and safely use a firearm, to include don't point it anybody it's not a toy and keep your hand off the damn trigger regardless of if the safety is on

Lol just as I read this, I opened Internet explorer and I saw that a girl had been shot by a BB gun :p
