A negligent discharge is never an accident it can be the result of a lack of knowledge about firearms handling, sheer irresponsible stupidity or the result of an inherent firearm malfunction due to an error in design or implementation. (Like the one suffered by the Taurus 24/7 for example.)

Also a damaged firearm due to a lack of care or maintenance.

Talking of inherent issues, one of the worst rifles ever issued to the British military was the L85A1 aka the SA80. A good knock and it would fire a round off. The mag release catch would get caught on clothing and drop the magazine out at precisely the wrong moment, the firing pin would often break on them esp. when used in full auto. The ejection port was positioned so that it couldn't be fired left handed without getting a face full of brass. And the stupid plastic that it was half made of would crack in cold weather. And it was useless in sandy environments.

Apart from that it was a good piece of kit. Before those days we had the SLR, which was used in the Falklands War, chambered in 7.62, accurate, reliable and fit for purpose. When it was getting replaced I hoped the UK would adopt the US AR-15 platform, which would have made way more sense than going for an untested design but you know how this shit goes. Our defence secretary makes the decisions and a few backhanders under the table or political pressure will usually swing the deal.

The SA80 has been completely revamped now by Heckler & Koch as the L85A2 but it is not without good reason that the British SAS and SBS almost always use AR variants on the battlefield (the Colt Canada C8 is very popular)

This is why the world laughs at America's completely non-sensical non-logic.

WHY on earth do you think it’s America’s job to police other countries!?!?
We also have legal abortion.
And, we are in the midst of ‘celebrating’ the entire trans culture by teaching trans studies in schools ::wt and chain stores actually have trans clothing sections…

Why don’t you study before you speak next time.

How could you not laugh at this. A good example of how stupid people are amazing.

What kind of civilized society shoots guns in the airs during a wedding ?

I mean I'm sure they're not neurosurgeons or PhDs in Quantum Physics.

How many daughter's future husband being kill by the father?
Or the father actually don't like the guy but don't want to be so obvious and do it "traditionally"?
Their government never stop this kind of activity or celebration method?
or their government only thinking about "it just an accident, doesn't happen in every wedding" or "cannot stop this or else would not get vote on the next election."
