Reckless Gun Usage	comment	There are some basic rules for safely using guns. Unfortunately, not everyone knows what they are since many people are not used to firearms and/or are just Too Dumb to Live. This trope is when somebody unfamiliar with firearms does something reckless with guns that endangers others. Whether it's some schmuck in the middle of a Zombie Apocalypse or a bank robber, screwing up is still dangerous. When somebody who should know proper gun safety, such as soldiers or police, uses guns recklessly because the writer doesn't know any better, that's Artistic License â€“ Gun Safety. If somebody gets shot because guns are used recklessly and it's played seriously, that's I Just Shot Marvin in the Face. If safety is ignored or somebody gets shot for laughs, that's Juggling Loaded Guns. If a gun goes off randomly despite observance of Gun Safety, that's Reliably Unreliable Guns. See also Remonstrating with a Gun. Gun Twirling and Pants-Positive Safety are almost always this trope when they aren't Artistic License â€“ Gun Safety. If the gun-handler themself is killed, it's an Accidental Suicide. Perhaps realizing the high number of occasions where actors (due to the script or their own inexperience) may mishandle guns, it's not uncommon to discover that firearms that are seen in film and TV productions often end up (when examined in detail) being carved pieces of wood or molded plastic or rubber. It's also fairly common practice to issue "hero" prop weapons (that could be blank-firing or deactivated real weapons, or built around the same) which are meant to look good and appear functional in close-up, and which are given only to lead actors who (on a well-run set) have received at least minimal instruction in their safe handling, while background characters get the cheaper, entirely non-functional moulded props so that they don't need to be trained or supervised. Given the relative ease of adding realistic-enough muzzle flashes in modern post productionnote particularly given that even Hollywood-style muzzle flashes, which have tended to be brighter and bigger than in real life, are only a few frames in duration, and a history of tragic on-set incidents involving the mishandling of prop firearms, there are an increasing number of voices calling to entirely eliminate the use of any prop weapon that is capable of firing an actual round from production.note Revolvers are the most frequently problematic, here; a blank-firing semiautomatic must have the barrel blocked, to enable the expanding gasses from a blank round to cycle the action, sometimes tapping off and redirecting some of those gasses to the muzzle end in order to produce the requisite flash there; but blocking the barrel on a revolver would redirect all the gas to the cylinder gap, uncomfortably close to the performer's gun-hand, and no blowback is required to cycle the action, so prop revolvers tend to have unmodified barrels, quite capable of firing real ammunition if loaded with it. This trope is unfortunately Truth in Television, often with tragic results. In the United States, about one in 50 of all firearm deaths have this as their cause, with some being children of the actual gun owners. Even in historical military contexts (such as the time of the The Vietnam War and earlier), quite a number of tenets of modern gun safety (such as always keeping your fingers off of the trigger until actually shooting) were not universally or thoroughly drilled into soldiers, though the required complexity for firing the sorts of guns that predated the use of metallic cartridges made it difficult for sudden-shooting accidents to occur with them.

Reckless Gun Usage / int_109f7814	comment	Used often in Sherlock. In "The Great Game", following an intensely stressful confrontation with his arch-nemesis, Moriarty, Sherlock Holmes agitatedly waves around a loaded gun without the safety on, then proceeds to absent-mindedly scratch his head with it. In the same episode, he fires a pistol at the living room wall...of a terraced house. Firstly, the noise might have alerted his neighbours, upon which he could've expected a visit from the Metropolitan Police (who, for the record, are explicitly stated to be itching to prosecute him for something).note Even owning that handgun is illegal in the UK, much less firing wildly in a residential neighbourhood!. Secondly, over-penetration: the very real risk of the bullets passing through the wall and hitting something (or someone) in other rooms/buildings. Not to mention that he then fires it behind his back, doesn't look where he's aiming, has the gun lying around loaded, chambered, and armed, holds it loosely, and lets it wobble around after ceasing fire, and points it at John while handing it back. In "A Scandal in Belgravia", he disarms a man and flips the gun through the air before casually catching and aiming it while holding the trigger. In contrast, Irene Adler, in the same scene, points a pistol at her assailant with her finger clearly off the trigger — just like the assailants themselves were doing moments earlier. (The assailants being CIA operatives, justifying their knowledge of proper firearm handling.) He makes things worse by going outside and firing the gun into the air a few times (to summon the police, because he can't be bothered to just dial 999), apparently unaware of the numerous cases of people wounded or killed by stray shots and celebratory gunfire. In "The Reichenbach Fall", Sherlock shoots twice into the air in a highly-populated area, presses the loaded gun to his best friend's head with his finger on the trigger, and later just drops it onto the cobblestoned street while running away.

They were fingering the triggers of their rifles while arming up, although we don't know whether the rifles were loaded when they did that (still bad, though) and at least they weren't intentionally pointing them at each other. However, unlike the soldiers of episode 12, they're young and likely have very little (read: non-existent) training with the stuff. Though they've presumably been through Basic...

The Nostalgia Critic carries a handgun which he is prone to firing wildly in a residential area. In Atop the Fourth Wall, '90s Kid's first reaction to even seeing a weapon is to pick it up and begin firing randomly while shouting "Awesome" at the top of his lungs. Fortunately, he's an honorary graduate of the Imperial Stormtrooper Marksmanship Academy. Linkara himself has been known to wave the magic gun around unsettlingly. The pinnacle of this is the review of Alone in the Dark where various TGWTG reviewers fire an assortment of guns in every direction in pitch blackness, parodying an (in)famous scene in the movie.

Obviously the guy gets his brains spread all over the ground.

He grabs a Hand Cannon, slides a magazine in, waves it at a crowded boardroom, then tells the younger executive to use the gun in a threatening manner. The young executive takes it and then points it right at Dick Jones. Given Jones' company handles military contracts, Jones should have known this breaks pretty much every rule about gun handling. Jones then tells the young man to turn it towards the robot. It turns out Ed-209's massive cannons are loaded with live ammunition.

The first time, he drops it while trying to rescue Casey and Sarah, then stumbles on a windowsill with it drawn and pointed at the Big Bad before Knee-capping the scientist they're all trying to save. He doesn't get much better by the time he's officially issued his service sidearm; tucking it in his back pants pocket and sitting on it, then waving it around a CIA office when venting his frustration over how uncomfortable it is to carry to his new coworkers. He does become much more proficient in handling them later on. But that still doesn't stop him from accidentally shooting down Casey's helicopter with his own Desert Eagle in the series finale, when he fires a "warning shot" straight into the air in the middle of a crowded street.

The worst, however, happened after Wilson finally found a pistol that House owned to win an argument (long story). House convinces Wilson that the pistol is not, in fact, a firearm, but a prop gun that had belonged to a famous magician. House inserts the clip and cycles the action and then places the barrel to his head. This is enough to prove to Wilson that the gun is a prop, but the weapon is later revealed to be his father's very real M1911, and House was aiming it at himself with a round chambered. He also once shot a corpse in the hospital morgue. Handing surrendered handgun back to a man who had taken hostages, two of whom he had seriously injured has to count.

Reckless Gun Usage / int_24ffd341	comment	It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia plays this for comedy. A Running Gag has Frank always carrying a snub-nose revolver, which he whips out at the slightest provocation and points at people, fully cocked and with his finger on the trigger. It's even gone off on a few occasions. The gang occasionally yank it out of his hand. In "The Gang Gets Gun Fever", the gang purchases a pistol and handle it with laughably dangerous abandon. In one sequence, Mac waves the gun around while he and Dennis walk down a public hallway, then he points it at Dennis and says, "Pow pow pow!" Then he drops the ammo clip and fumbles to put it back in. Dennis eventually snatches the firearm out of Mac's hands. The Sequel Episode, "Gun Fever Too: Still Hot," shows that the characters haven't learned much since the first season. A highlight is a scene in which Dee carelessly waves around an AR-15 at a gun shop and repeatedly points it at the owner (who treats it as though it's loaded and tries to guide her aim away). Dennis and Dee are also denied a purchase from said shop because a background check reveals their history of felonious behavior. Frank's reckless gun habits are taken to their logical conclusion in the Season 16 episode "Frank Shoots Every Member of the Gang." In addition to shooting everyone in the bar, he also attempts to open a can of anchovies with the firearm and almost eats it after dipping the tip in ketchup.

He proceeds to be very reckless with it, using it to open beers and change the channel (among other things). When the members of the local NRA see him doing this, they chew him out for being so irresponsible and kick him out. Earlier in the episode, he hides the gun in the crisper drawer after Marge tells him to get rid of it; Bart finds it by accident, and Marge catches him and Milhouse about to play William Tell with it. The apple is in his mouth. "Homer the Vigilante" has a scene where Homer's neighborhood watch somehow gets their hands on a bunch of pump shotguns, and start cocking them and pointing them around in Homer's front hall with their fingers on the triggers—at one point, Homer even looks down the barrel of the fully-cocked shotgun. When Marge steps in and points out that this seems too dangerous, Homer says they're responsible adults who can be trusted to handle firearms... then, in the next ten seconds, Moe, Captain McCallister, Principal Skinner, Moe again, and Bart all have their guns accidentally discharge in sequence. Also in "$pringfield": frenzied over Lisa's nightmare, Homer believes that the boogeyman is really out there and he brandishes a shotgun which he points at Marge's face when she comes home, upon realizing that she's not the boogeyman he tosses the gun onto the ground, negligently causing it to discharge. Thankfully, no one was hit. Then there's The Simpsons Movie where Chief Wiggum eats donuts ringed around his gun barrel, which is pointing directly into his mouth. It then goes off, but by some miracle (possibly due to the recoil) the bullet goes skywards instead, leaving him with a bullethole in the brim of his hat. He says "Wooooah, that was close!", before immediately continuing to munch on the donuts. Wiggum is shown in another episode getting chewed out by a Drill Sergeant Nasty for looking down the barrel of his own gun (after firing it very timidly), or what he calls, "Pointsy-Towardsies." Wiggum then uses said gun to massage the back of the drill sergeant, whereupon he negligently shot the cameraman. In a later scene, it is shown Wiggum got his position because he gave the mayor the same type of massage. Wiggum also uses the butt of his gun to crack nuts open and then shoots one of them when he is unsuccessful. Wiggum scratches his ear with the barrel of his gun when he points out Homer Simpson is that stupid cop off the TV.

Reckless Gun Usage / int_29e77392	comment	Horrible Histories did a "Stupid Death" segment on Clement Vallandigham, a 19th Century American lawyer who accidentally shot himself in court. He was representing a man accused of shooting and killing someone else in a bar fight, and was demonstrating that it would have been possible for the alleged victim to have accidentally shot himself. He thought the gun he was using as a prop was unloaded. It wasn't. He did prove his case though, and his client was freed. Another segment actually shows two examples of this without guns, both involving Tudor archers. In one, the dead guy bet his friend that he couldn't shoot his hat out of his hand and got hit in the chest; in another, the bow got stuck, so the archer bent over to see what was wrong and accidentally shot himself in the head.

However, his eccentric personality results in him firing rapidly with little to no consistent aim at any possible moment. Considering he's running at break-neck speed, screaming at the top of his lungs, waving his arms wildly, thus results in some exceedingly reckless gun-handling. At one point, he even crashes into a wall, falls down, and as he gets up, he discharges the pistol into his own leg.

Reckless Gun Usage / int_36795c0f	comment	Several examples in Falling Down, since for as much as Foster ends up using guns across the film, it's clear that it's his first day he's actually done so. There are two standout examples, both of which revolve around Foster keeping his finger on the trigger when he doesn't intend to shoot: The first is the Whammyburger scene, where he pulls a machine pistol on the staff because they won't serve breakfast past 11:30 AM. When the rest of the customers panic, he tries to calm them down, only to immediately send them into further panic because he accidentally lets loose a burst into the ceiling. Notably, after he explains that it's a "sensitive trigger" and he didn't mean to do that, he pointedly keeps his finger off the trigger for the rest of the scene. The second is the scene where he pulls out a rocket launcher to try to destroy heavy machinery, but has no idea how to use it until a random kid who watched a lot of action movies teaches him — it's only about a second between him being told what part is the trigger and him accidentally hitting that trigger while he has the launcher off-target, sending it down an open sewer pipe.

To demonstrate he pulls the trigger again, and is horrified to discover the gun was loaded with the one bullet.

Therefore it's quite horrifying to see one scene where she's driving a car while holding someone at gunpoint in the passenger seat. Just to be clear, she has a loaded gun in her hand, with her finger on the trigger, and is steering with that hand. The gun keeps swinging wildly in the passenger's direction. It becomes hard to pay attention to the film when you're constantly waiting for someone to unintentionally blow someone else's brains out.

While creeping around in the dark building, Dave hears a voice behind him, spins around, and pulls the trigger, only to find that it's the man they were looking for. Fortunately, he hadn't chambered a round, so he just poses casually with the gun, "so as not to be too blatant about the fact that [he] had almost killed him with it just now." In the sequel This Book Is Full of Spiders: Seriously, Dude, Don't Touch It, Amy informs wannabe-badass Josh that, while loading his gun, he accidentally pointed the barrel at her head four times. She goes on to say that he and his friends clearly don't know what they're doing, and they're way more likely to shoot each other by accident than do anything useful. Later, while watching the footage on Josh's gun-mounted camera, she notices that he frequently points it right at the back of his friend's head, and he records a message on said camera by pointing it at his own face. Josh and his fellow wannabe badasses do in fact end up panicking and shooting a bunch of innocent people; the gunfire attracts the actual monsters, which goes...poorly.

He starts counting down to make good on his threat until Joker tells him to stop, saying he knows for sure there are still bullets in the gun... while looking directly down the barrel. Though this is only for a second before pointing it at the ceiling and firing off a shot and smugly telling Deadshot he knew it.

Reckless Gun Usage / int_73a9c933	comment	Played straight in The Walking Dead. Most of the main cast have some form of experience regarding safe gun usage (Rick and Shane are cops, Daryl is a hunter, Dale is the designated rifleman) but those like Andrea, Carol, and the others have only had limited exposure to guns and wouldn't be familiar with the basic safety rules. In "Nebraska," Dave goes behind the bar in a barely-concealed attempt to set up Rick. But he does so by putting Rick right between Tony and himself, so if he had actually succeeded in getting off a shot, he'd have hit his friend too.

In another scene, Pyro and Crosshairs fire their guns straight up into the air, and see whose bullet takes the longest to come down. Neither of them seems particularly concerned that the bullets both land between them, and that they are standing less than two feet apart and could easily have been hit and killed. Worse, the dialogue indicates that betting on this is a frequent form of entertainment for them.

To be fair, Broadway is a 1,000-year-old gargoyle who came from a period with no firearms... but Elisa, an NYPD detective, had left her sidearm, holster and gun belt unattended in another room from where she was (she admits later that she was careless and should have known better). This is a case of Reckless Gun Usage for the 1,000-year-old gargoyle that has no concept of firearms, and a case of basic breach of common sense for the New York cop who kept a loaded gun holstered and unsecured in her apartment in plain sight. It also becomes the key to their respective and collective Character Development: Elisa thereafter unloads and locks away her service weapon when not in use, while using guns irresponsibly or for evil purposes becomes a Berserk Button for Broadway.

Reckless Gun Usage / int_911abba4	comment	1000 Ways to Die: One death involved two guys who have been friends since they were in elementary; they do everything together and are generally chummy towards each other, even deciding to live together as roommates in college. Unfortunately, in adulthood one of the two friends became addicted to cigarettes and constantly bothers the other for money so he can buy more, or for spares to share with him. Becoming tired of having to supply cigarettes for his friend, the annoyed friend loads some cigarettes into his shotgun and aims them directly into his roommate's face, saying, "Hey buddy want some cigarettes?" Being drunk at the time, he didn't seem afraid of having a shotgun pointed at him and nods his head in approval at the idea of cigarettes. The cigarettes fly out of the shotgun at supersonic speed and penetrate the guy's skull. He simply wanted to injure his friend; he didn't think cigarettes would penetrate flesh as bullets do. This shows that you never point a gun at something or someone you are not intending to kill or destroy and that anything flying out of a gun is going to be potentially lethal. Another episode featured a magician attempting a bullet-catching trick; when tapping the barrel of the gun with his wand, part of the wand's tip fell off and into the barrel, which was then propelled by the blank cartridge with lethal force through a major artery in his neck. Then there was the Boyfriend-Blocking Dad who came at his daughter's boyfriend with a revolver and fired it at him — only to reveal he'd loaded it with blanks. Bad enough for this trope on its own, even worse when he then tries to demonstrate that it's "harmless" by placing the muzzle to his head and pulling the trigger, which causes the flash from the blank to propel a chunk of his own skull through his brain and kill him.

Some Reckless Gun Usage (firing off a series of rapid shots at a dog while not even looking in the same direction) results in one character unintentionally killing the infamously unkillable Bullet Tooth Tony. Subverted in the scenes where Boris the Blade sells pistols to Tommy and Franky Four Fingers; both engage in some stupid behavior (Tommy aiming a gun right at Gorgeous George, Franky scratching his temple with the gunbarrel). Boris shows no concern either time, despite being a trained gun professional. Because he knows the guns don't fire.

In "Tomorrow Is Yesterday", Kirk is captured by Air Police in 1969, and cringes with priceless facial expressions as they fiddle with his weapon, toss it, and several times almost press the trigger, conflicted between justifiable fear and the need to not give away future information. Similarly, in City on the Edge of Forever, a homeless man robs Bones while he's unconscious, and promptly vaporizes himself with the doctor's phaser.

Despite being warned not to, the doctor keeps his finger on the trigger with the gun loaded as he runs down the rear ramp of the plane, and due to the wet metal ramp, he slips and falls, causing the gun to hit the ramp and discharge, shooting the poor doctor in the head and killing him.

After that, she points the gun at the lock, despite the fact that Mr. Green and Professor Plum are dangerously close to the line of fire and have to dive out of the way before she begins shooting. And although she succeeds in shooting out the lock, she does it while Mustard and Scarlett are still just on the other side of the door she's shooting at! Indeed, one of the shots appears to go right through the door and graze Colonel Mustard. After shooting out the lock, she basically strikes a sexy pose with the gun, once again thoughtlessly aiming it straight at Mr. Green and Prof. Plum, who frantically scuttle out of the way a second time. With the door now open, the first thing Colonel Mustard does is chew Yvette out for almost killing him. Also, in Ending A where Miss Scarlett is the killer, we have a case of this being done by someone who is, presumably, trained in firearm safety! During a standoff, Wadsworth claims that the gun is empty and Scarlett insists there is one bullet left. Eventually, she gets distracted and Wadsworth manages to overpower her and take the gun away. Then, in an attempt prove that he was right, rather than simply open up the gun Wadsworth casually aims at the ceiling and pulls the trigger, and it turns out that there really was one bullet left. And as a consequence of his reckless handling of the gun, another guest almost gets killed.

Reckless Gun Usage / int_c0c57462	comment	Lucca of Chrono Trigger has moments that are either this or Artistic License â€“ Gun Safety.note She is the only character, playable or otherwise, who uses firearms, so it's unclear if formal safety protocols exist; however, her intelligence and backstory suggest she'd probably err on the side of safety of her own volition. When she builds her Infinity +1 Gun, which concentrates eons worth of solar power into each shot, the first thing she does is point it all around the room, miming firing, including directly at her observing friends.

Reckless Gun Usage / int_c43df4d8	comment	Doctor Who: In "The Space Museum", there's all kinds of stupidity with the laser rifle the characters discover. First Ian (quite uncharacteristically) mimes shooting all the others with it, and later Vicki wanders around carrying it vertically under her arm with the end of the barrel tucked into her armpit. In "The Gunfighters", probably as part of the story's general comic tone, the Doctor, Dodo, and Steven show ridiculous recklessness and ignorance in handling firearms, in contrast to other stories (especially since Steven was originally meant to have a far-future military background). In particular, there's the scene where Doc gives the Doctor a revolver, which the Doctor then repeatedly and unthinkingly points at both Doc and Kate and fails to react when they shove it away. In the Made-for-TV Movie the Doctor shows he's an Actual Pacifist by threatening to shoot himself in order to commandeer a policeman's motorcycle. However, when Grace wants a word with him, he starts pointing the gun vaguely in the direction of the policeman while looking the other way. It's not even clear if he's actually aiming at the cop or if it's simply slipped his mind that the object he's holding is a gun. If the script had followed real life, they should have had John Hurt show up shortly after... Unless you really want to die, you do not point anything that even remotely looks like a gun at a police officer. For any reason. In "The End of Time", the Doctor does a Dramatic Gun Cock every time he changes his aim. Does he think he needs to hold the gun very, very still to prevent it from uncocking itself, or does he believe that the gun knows when he changes his mind? It shouldn't even be possible to do that. Considering that the gun in question is Wilf's old service revolver (and therefore impossible to Dramatic Gun Cock more than once) this is most likely a sound effect added for dramatic purpose rather than the Doctor actually doing the impossible (for a change). Subverted in the episode "Daleks in Manhattan". A ditzy-seeming actress is almost exaggeratedly bad at safe handling of a gun she has been threatening with, ultimately throwing it onto a chair. It's a prop. Amy Pond's alternate universe skill with a gun did not carry over, as shown when she wildly swings around a revolver in "A Town Called Mercy". Her first accidental shot was no doubt because of her Dramatic Gun Cock earlier, but then it goes off a second time. Yes, she manages to have an accidental discharge with a single-action revolver. In "Hell Bent", the at-the-end-of-his-rope Twelfth Doctor waves a gun at a room full of people, including the person he's trying to save, who is visibly unnerved. The General feels the need to mention the weapon has no stun setting.

Reckless Gun Usage / int_c5ead8e8	comment	Goodfellas wavers between Artistic License â€“ Gun Safety and this trope. It's impossible to tell from the film when the actors are making mistakes and when they're portraying their character's blatant disregard for gun safety. Karen in one scene hides a snub-nose revolver in her panties. A Justified Trope in this case, as she is hiding it from a police search. Plenty of other characters stick guns in waistbands or pockets where they could negligently discharge. Tommy, Joe Pesci's iconic complete lunatic of a gangster, frequently violates the rules about not mixing firearms and alcohol and not pointing a weapon at anything you aren't meaning to hit. In a memorable sequence, he drunkenly waves a revolver around while comparing himself to a movie cowboy. He "flags" (unintentionally points the muzzle at) everyone else at his poker table. The other players are justifiably alarmed — then go right back to laughing. Tommy then shoots at Spider while imitating a stunt in a movie. He accidentally shoots Spider in the foot. It's arguable whether this counts as failing to never aim at anything you do not want to hit since Tommy is just a monster. Near the end of the film, Ray Liotta's Henry Hill is waiting for his wife to get back from meeting one of his accomplices. Henry carries a semi-auto pistol. He runs out to escort his wife Karen from her car to the door. He holds the firearm in a very strange position as if he were palming it, where the trigger might snag as he physically hauls Karen into the house. The muzzle rakes across Henry's chest so it might or might not enter and exit obliquely. Then the bullet would hit Karen straight in the side of the torso, cutting along from just under one armpit to exit out the other side of her chest. During that sequence, if the gun discharged, Karen's heart, aorta, both lungs, liver, stomach, and spleen were all right about at the right level to be hit. Henry is seen in the next scene holding Karen in bed. He has a drawn semi-auto pistol. His finger is in the trigger well. Early in the film, Henry gives Karen a bloody, loaded revolver to hide. Karen (presumably) has no experience with firearms at that point in the film. It's good practice to unload and clear a firearm before passing it to someone else. When passing it over, make sure it's open so the recipient can check to make sure it's not loaded. Granted, Henry was more concerned with having Karen hide the revolver since he used it to pistol-whip a man who sexually assaulted her just a few minutes ago.

Reckless Gun Usage / int_ca08598f	comment	The Wire: Kima is assigned to investigate the murder of a State's witness in an alley. There's quite a bit of backroom scheming because it's a mayoral election year, so she is under pressure from one side to solve the case quickly and from the other to bury it. It turns out, a pair of drunken knuckleheads two blocks away were shooting at beer bottles and hit the guy unintentionally. Pryzbylewski is assigned to a unit because he's a foul-up who can't be fired because of his family connections. He has several instances of reckless gun usage, including shooting up his own car with two magazines full of ammo, shooting a hole in the wall of his office while showing a fellow officer how light his trigger is, and pistol-whipping a 14-year-old boy in the face, causing him permanent blindness in one eye. The police aren't the only ones who don't know how to handle a weapon. In a Season 3 episode, Avon Barksdale handles a pistol with his finger on the trigger the entire time, waving it around and pointing it at his colleagues the entire time. During an investigation (the famous Cluster F-Bomb scene), McNulty points his own service weapon at himself repeatedly to figure out a bullet trajectory. There are also several instances of gang fights with reckless gun usage, such as trying to do a drive-by, or not even looking at the people they're trying to shoot. In one instance, it leads to a stray shot killing a young child who happened to be in a building nearby, and, in another, Dante accidentally shoots a member of his own stickup crew, and probably never even realises he did so.

Reckless Gun Usage / int_cac1f772	comment	CSI: Nick Stokes investigates how a woman got shot with no evidence of a shooter anywhere near. The answer is that there was an idiot who had a gun and made a shooting range in the backyard, in the suburbs within city limits, a big-time city ordinance no-no, and a stray bullet went into the air and struck the woman on the decline. When they arrest him, he protests it was an accident and Stokes contemptuously responds "Well, that's why it's illegal to shoot guns within city limits, genius!" Another episode sees an especially impressive scenario when Sara, Nick, and Warrick look into the case of a teenager found dead in an abandoned warehouse who was shot by a single bullet, but the walls are absolutely riddled with bullet holes. Turns out, the teen and his idiot friends tried to make their own Jackass-style stunt called "Bamboo Russian Roulette", where they spun a machine pistol down on a bamboo pole suspended from the ceiling and tried to dodge the bullets as the gun's hair trigger pressed against the pole on the way down. The victim died after being struck by one of these bullets.

The wife shows off the merchandise and tries to sell guns in the reception area, letting people handle non-functional samples. Desk clerk Jerry picks up a grenade launcher and at one point, playfully points it directly at the other receptionist, who yelps and ducks away. The wife laughs and assures her that it's perfectly safe because it isn't loaded... just as Jerry pulls the trigger and fires a grenade into the parking lot, where it blows up an ambulance. The very fact that the husband was shot at the gun show already demonstrates incredible carelessness on their parts, and there's considerable Fridge Horror that Jerry would have killed the other clerk and likely other people had he pulled the trigger earlier. Always assume a gun is loaded, even if you yourself just unloaded it, and never, ever point a gun at someone unless you intend to use it.

When Quatermain is forced to leave the bulk of the expedition's arsenal in the safekeeping of a rather untrustworthy figure in the hinterlands, he deliberately leaves the guns loaded, cocked and unsafe in order to discourage said figure from getting ideas about moving, tampering with or selling on said guns before they get back.

Reckless crossbow accidents are seen or mentioned on a couple of occasions, like the Noodle Incident involving the death of Willow and Tara's pet cat. Justified as Scoobies (or ditzy vampires like Harmony) are basically fighting civilians. Even trained Slayers, however...

Reckless Gun Usage / int_e4732abc	comment	Stargate Atlantis: In the episode "Common Ground", "Todd" handles a human firearm in an extremely reckless way while he and Sheppard are escaping. This is actually realistic though since "Todd" is an alien from another galaxy, so there's no way he would know how to use human firearms safely. Also, keep in mind the handheld weapons his race (the Wraith) use stun only. They use humans for food, and the feeding process depends on them being alive, so killing them outright with weapons would be counterproductive. He's simply handling the human firearm the way he would handle one of his race's weapons. The series averts this with the human characters, who always use weapons the proper way.

Reckless Gun Usage / int_e511305b	comment	The scene between Buzzy and Duffy in 11:14 could be shown in gun safety classes as "Things You Must Never Do." First, Duffy points it at Buzzy's head when he has no intention of harming her. Then Buzzy picks it up, twirls it and starts playing cops-and-robbers with it...knowing it's loaded because the bullets fell out when she twirled it and she put them back in. It's sheer luck that nobody's hurt when the gun goes off.

Burroughs), combine this trope with literal Diabolus ex Machina, and the heroine gets shot on her wedding day. In Carl Maria von Weber's original version, the bullet gets deflected by the blessed white roses in her bridal wreath, though, and she's okay (the villain buys it, instead).

Reckless Gun Usage / int_e7327ca8	comment	Just about everyone in 1941 (1979): Ward Douglas fires an anti-aircraft gun at a Japanese submarine by firing the gun through his house. Wild Bill shoots at an American plane (mistakenly thinking it's a Japanese plane) while it flies at low altitude over Hollywood Boulevard, which is crowded with people. When there's an air raid warning, a tank crew starts shooting at the lighted signs on the street, not caring where the bullets go. A safer and more effective approach might have been to turn off the lights instead of shooting at them.

Reckless Gun Usage / int_f0a86c12	comment	How I Met Your Mother: The characters pick up a man they think is Moby. After some time in the car, he gets out his gun, explaining that he never leaves home without it, and proceeds to make elaborate hand gestures while holding it. After they drop him off, he steps back in, still holding the gun, to give them a word of New-Year's-Eve advice: "Safety first!" In another episode, Marshall tells the group about how he was robbed, and Robin recommends he get "One of these", casually drawing a large handgun from her purse with her finger on the trigger, which she then waves around negligently several times. When the others react with understandable terror she assures them the safety is on, then looks closely at the gun, calmly says "Oh, wait" and then puts the safety on. In yet another episode, she chases her boyfriend's hippy friends out of the apartment by pointing a gun at them, something you should never, ever do, even with a gun you know for a fact isn't loaded and/or has the safety on. Robin is a gun enthusiast who routinely loses her guns, accidentally points a gun at another character while making vague threats, and apparently goes to the shooting range while blackout drunk (a good way to get banned for life at a real range). This is because it isn't how she actually acts; it's how an uber-liberal, previously established Unreliable Narrator (Ted) thinks she acts.

He learned his lesson, as when given two nukes and an order to expend all his munitions in actual combat Rico actually prefers breaking his order rather than throw his second nuke at something not worth the sheer power or risk hitting a teammate.
