Shampoo isn't very similar to a gun. I can't find any stats, but I wouldn't be surprised if the number of people killed by aggressive use of shampoo was close

  You can't find any stats because the shampoo lobby has suppressed all shampoo death-related research... A friend of mine tried to bring his gun through security. He had it in an outside pocket of his duffel bag and just forgot it was there. It's just another thing that you carry around with you. It seems lost on some people that these are deadly weapons and it may be good to treat them with a modicum of extra respect. It never occurs to my friend that someone could take his bag, discover the gun, and kill someone with it, even though he never would. That it could be a kid that shoots themselves or someone else in complete innocence. My friend is indeed absent-minded but I don't think that covers it fully. It is a certain mindset, and a fairly prevalent one especially in the South.

    See, I wouldn't leave a gun in a bag, I'd always have it on my person. Someone can snatch or go through my bag, or my bag might not be nearby. I see that as kind of irresponsible handling.
