Law enforcement officials in Michigan said that they learned this week
that an elected Republican official who had recently shot herself to
death had been adjusting her bra holster when the accident occurred.

Earlier this year, St. Joseph Public Safety officers reported that
55-year-old Christina Bond had died on New Years Day from what
appeared to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound to her eye.

Although the full autopsy had not been completed, officials released
new details on Wednesday.

“She was having trouble adjusting her bra holster, couldn’t get it to
fit the way she wanted it to. She was looking down at it and
accidentally discharged the weapon,” St. Joseph Public Safety Director
Mark Clapp said.

According to an obituary published by Florin Funeral Service, Bond
joined the U.S. Navy out of high school, and served two terms as an
active Military Police. She was an administrator for the Road to Life
Church, and an “active member of the Christian Motorcycle
Association.”

The obituary described Bond as being “on FIRE for the LORD.”

Fired herself from life.

She was "looking down at it and accidentally discharged the weapon." If
she could fire a gun simply by looking at it, she didn't really need a
gun to defend herself. :)

She was clearly a very capable person. But it's clear that the more
time you spend with a weapon and the more you handle it, the more
likely you'll be bitten by the odds of a mishap.

Very astute observation. Reckon that's true of driving a car, flying, skiing,
boating, and on and on. Life is a dangerous occupation, and we all lose.

Fortunately, all those other items provide something other than a
quick death in their use.

And please don't start with all the crimes thwarted. They've long
been debunked as frighteningly overblown false positives.

We are supposed to take your word for it screwdriver man?

Plus, the variety of mishaps that occur with those other items are far
less likely to be deadly than those that occur with a gun.
