Nope, they happen. I'll leave it to you to search for them. For me, there are people who need guns, and people who must not have them. They're killing machines and serve no other purpose (unlike the knife which has utility).
- wyager 9y agoNot to be dismissive, but it's very clear you don't know what you're talking about here. Fundamentally, to put oneself in a situation where an accidental discharge (operator-caused or not) poses a health risk, you've already violated several fundamental rules of gun safety. So these things fall very squarely into the realm of "negligent mishandling". I can think of very few scenarios where I would attribute a "cleaning accident" to the gun, as opposed to an ignorant operator. As for the rest of your comment, that line of reasoning has been addressed thousands of times, so I won't bother being thousands plus one. My firearm usage doesn't involve killing anything, so this should be a big glaring hint that there's an error in your reasoning.
