This picture here shows the incapability of a person operating a firearm safely.

A tragedy involving firearms and the filibusters of reality duck the media questions of this.

Wilson County Deputy Daniel Fanning.

The junk food media wanted those gridlock obsessed Republican politicos to explain why the American people can't get a vote on gun control measures proposed by Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-California) and the president.

4-year old kills a police officer wife.

In Tennessee, a tragedy at the cookout. CNN reports a pistol in the hands of a 4-year-old boy went off during a weekend cookout, killing the wife of a Tennessee sheriff's deputy who was showing his guns to a relative, state police said Monday.

No one saw the boy pick up the weapon before the shooting, which occurred Saturday night in Lebanon, east of Nashville, Tennessee Bureau of Investigation spokeswoman Kristin Helm said. The single shot killed 47-year-old Josephine Fanning, the wife of Wilson County Sheriff's Deputy Daniel Fanning.

Josephine Fanning was killed by toddler.

The couple were hosting family and friends at their house when Daniel Fanning and a relative went into a bedroom to check out some of Fanning's guns, Helm said. Josephine Fanning and the boy walked into the room later, and at some point the boy picked the loaded pistol up off the bed.

Sheriff Robert Bryan called the shooting a terrible accident and said the boy picked up the gun almost immediately after Fanning had placed it on the bed.

"Within seconds this small 4-year-old comes into the room, unbeknownst to the officer, and just picked up the gun and shot her," Bryan said. "Danny Fanning is going to have to live with it. Our prayers, our thoughts go out to him and the child."

Alcohol was present at the gathering, Helm said. Daniel Fanning was not on duty at the time of the shooting.

"He was a good officer who did his job," said former Wilson County Sheriff Terry Ashe, who hired Daniel Fanning.

The gun that the 4-year-old fired was Fanning's personal weapon and not his police gun, Helm and Bryan said. The deputy's weapons are normally stored in a safe.

No charges are pending, but the state is continuing to investigate, Helm said.

"(It) appears accidental at this time," Helm said.

Tennessee ranks among the highest in the nation for accidental firearm deaths, according to the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Helm said she wasn't sure of the relationship between the boy and the Fannings. The TBI, which investigates incidents involving law enforcement officers, is still conducting its probe, and no charges have been filed.

The gun involved was Fanning's personal weapon, not his service pistol, she said.
