Man showing off his gun to friends accidentally 'Second Amendments' himself in the head [View all]

Two grown men were playing with guns, so of course, one of them Second Amendmented himself in the head.

The shooting has been ruled as accidental and no charges will be filed in the North Carolina man’s death. 22-year-old Raymond David Andrews, of New Bern, fatally inured himself with a handgun.

Upon further investigation, it revealed that Andrews and a friend and coworker at the Nightmare Factory were discussing and viewing firearms while standing in the parking lot beside victim’s vehicle.
