Anti-Gun "BRADY CAMPAIGN" board member buys, carries, then complains about guns...
Heidi Yewman, board member of the Brady Campaign, gets a carry permit, buys a gun, and purposely starts carrying it while being absolutely petrified of it and with no knowledge of how to handle it. Then she starts writing about her experience to demonstrate how horrible it is that people should be allowed to have guns.
The fail is so thick you could use it as a crash barrier.

My Month With a Gun: Week One
Here is just a small tid bit to get you into the whole story at the link above:
. . . so when I got home and opened the box and saw the magazine in the gun I freaked. I was too scared to try and eject it as thoughts flooded my mind of me accidentally shooting the gun and a bullet hitting my son in the house or rupturing the gas tank of my car, followed by an earth-shaking explosion. This was the first time my hands shook from the adrenaline surge and the first time I questioned the wisdom of this 30-day experiment.
I needed help. I drove to where a police officer had pulled over another driver. Now, writing this, I realize that rolling up on an on-duty cop with a handgun in tow might not have been fully thought through.
I told him I just bought a gun, had no clue how to use it. I asked him to make sure there were no bullets in the magazine or chamber. He took the magazine out and cleared the chamber. He assured me it was empty and showed me how to look. Then he told me how great the gun was and how he had one just like it.
The cop thought I was an idiot and suggested I take a class. But up to that point I’d done nothing wrong, nothing illegal. . .
