For those who don't know, the four cardinal rules of safe gun handling are
Treat all guns as if they are loaded
Finger off the trigger until you are ready to fire
Be aware of your target and what's behind it
Never point a gun at anything you are not willing to kill or destroy
He should know these, having been to a hunting safety class to get a permit. This should be an example in classes of how breaking the safety rules can end in tragedy. I guess the best we can hope for at this point is that others learn from it and nobody else dies.
