I agree.

Neither is shooting a girlfriend.

Regardless of the legality, two lives and to some extent two families are destroyed or irreparably damaged. Only the lawyers are going to benefit.

According to news reports, Oscar Pistorius was arrested in Pretoria, South Africa, Thursday and will be charged with murder in the shooting death of his girlfriend.

Unnamed friends or associates reportedly said the shooting was an accident.

South African law apparently limits statements that the police can make before a suspect appears in court. (Not that I claim to know anything about South African law.)

Mr. Pistorius made history by competing in the Olympics with prosthetic lower legs. He is a double amputee.

Why do these accidents happen, and why are so many fatal? Every incident like this is a disaster to supporters of the right to armed self defense.
