Your article contains more detail than what that excerpt said. While there is more detail in the article, this pretty well covers it:
"Keenan Sanders, general manager at the Nashville Armory, said accidental shootings are nine times out of 10 due to user error in how people handle or store a gun."

“If the gun was not made by a reputable manufacture, it's definitely possible that either poor sub components could be used that could fail when the firearm was dropped," Sanders said. "At that point it's not necessarily a design issue of the firearm. It's simply a failure of a mechanical piece that could could cause a gun to go off."

In 2011, for instance, accidental firearm discharges killed 591 people in the U.S., according to the CDC.
These mass shooters -- random mass killings -- not gang killings -- are white males.
They just are.
Go ahead list the last 10 mass shootings.
Go ahead list the last 20 mass shootings.
Count 'em up.
When you include gang violence of murder suicides -- that's not a mass shooter.
Mass Shooter -- a random guy shooting at random folks.
Mass shootings, excluding gang related mass shootings, approximates the population demographics. Of the last ten mass shootings, seven perpetrators were White (one of which was Italian/Iranian), two were Black and one was Latino. Of the next ten mass shootings, six were White, two were Latino, one was Black and one was Asian.
You said that guns are killing people. Show me these guns that kill people, guns that do not have any human interaction that are killing people.
This is the most ridiculous argument. In that case we shouldn’t have laws around drugs because the drugs don’t kill people. People are taking the drugs. Seriously... it’s tiresome.
We all KNOW that guns are killing our citizens! Why should we care about the specifics of the guns that are killing us?
Cause you have FOOLS claiming an AR-15 is an automatic weapon. It's nauseating how ignorant the masses are and just parrot what they see other fellow imbeciles are saying.
How about folks actually look into something before making completely clueless statements.

Uh, there should be no drug or gun laws.
It's called freedom.
