WASHINGTON — A Washington, D.C., musician who ordered a flat-screen TV
through Amazon.com was shocked to receive a semiautomatic assault
rifle instead.

Thirty-eight-year-old Seth Horvitz says he purchased the 39-inch
television from a third-party seller. A box arrived from UPS on
Tuesday evening, and it seemed too small to contain the TV. He says he
initially thought it contained accessories.

But when he opened it, he found a Sig Sauer military-style rifle. He
says he had never held a gun before he felt the trigger of the rifle.

An invoice showed that the gun was intended for delivery to a firearms
dealer in Duncansville, Penn. Horvitz called police, who took the gun
and are investigating how the mistaken shipment occurred.

Amazon.com and United Parcel Service had no immediate comment.

Not only is it butt easy to get these deadly weapons, they're in such
high supply you can now get 'em by mistake.

"But when he opened it, he found a Sig Sauer military-style rifle."

Thank goodness it wasn't an 'assault' weapon!

Hmmmm... *I've come to the conclusion that weapons in the wrong hands
are nearly as deadly as a bible in the wrong hands.

Stupid is as stupid does.

Then you should speak against the 'wrong hands'

People are mutable. They change moods, change behavior. They can go
from perfectly nice and quiet to insane over a short or long period.

There's very little space between right hands and wrong hands in a
whole lot of people.

You're in favor of promoting the close living arrangements of powder
kegs and matches. I'm in favor of keeping the matches at a safe
distance from powder kegs.

Jarod Loughner referred to himself as a failure because Gabby Giffords
survived his shooting her in the head. He's standing trial as sane.
