What not to do

I have a problem with the headline to this story:


Imperial man shoots himself in the head while teaching firearms safety

That's a hard way to teach what not to do. He wasn't teaching anything, he was being a dumbass. There are four rules. You have to break at least one for an accident to happen. This guy broke them all. At once. That makes him a lesson, not a teacher.

RULE I: ALL GUNS ARE ALWAYS LOADED
RULE II: NEVER LET THE MUZZLE COVER ANYTHING YOU ARE NOT WILLING TO DESTROY
RULE III: KEEP YOUR FINGER OFF THE TRIGGER UNTIL YOUR SIGHTS ARE ON THE TARGET
RULE IV: BE SURE OF YOUR TARGET
