Today, my parents thought it would be a great surprise to accidentally shoot me in the leg for my birthday. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I went to the gun range for a birthday and got shot in the foot by my mom. FML
Today, I took my 15-year-old daughter to our local shooting range for her birthday, as she requested. While she was setting up a target in front of me, I jokingly pulled the trigger and shouted, "Think Fast!" not realizing that the safety was off. I shot my daughter in the arm on her birthday. FML
Today, my parents forgot it was my birthday. They ordered me to scrub the common bathroom, and when I asked if they'd remembered, my dad's reaction was, "Oh! Really?" My mom's was, "I thought that it was next week." What lovely parents I have. FML
Today, my parents took me out to dinner. I thought they were taking me because it's my birthday. Turns out they are getting divorced. They forgot it was my birthday. FML
Today, I came home a day after my birthday, and was greeted by my mother who told me, "Oh, I have birthday present for you." She explained that she and my father went on a hike, and handed me my present. I got a fucking stick for my birthday. FML
Today, my aunt asked to see my new airsoft pistol. Not thinking anything of it, I handed it to her. She shot me in the leg. I was standing next to her. FML
Today, I thought my family would like it if I celebrated the new year with them. My brother thought that I'd like him to shoot my butt with his new gun in celebration. FML
Today, I went paintballing with my siblings. Once we were done, they realised I hadn't been shot at all. They cornered me in the forest and lit me up. I have welts all over my legs. FML
Today, it's my birthday. My dad was supposed to take me to get a tattoo, but instead he went to the bar, got drunk, and told me how I was the biggest mistake he and my mom have ever made. FML
Today, it's my 16th birthday. My parents forgot about it, and planned a weekend out of town. I was alone on my birthday. FML

With an actual bullet? Or something like a BB gun?

America..

This can happen anywhere not just in America don't believe everything you see on the internet

61 yeah it can happen anywhere but do you have any idea how frequently it happens in America? The US's gun laws are a problem on their own, and on top of that irresponsible gun owners make things worse. Like why the **** was the safety off with kids around? From the outside looking in it would be laughable if it weren't so tragic. Like it or not, the United States has a gun problem comparable to developing/third world country; a problem which is starting to affect other countries too. A Canadian student was killed in Rogers' rampage, not to mention the other Canadians fallen victim to other American shootings.

Dont group responsible gun owners in with those who dont even know how to own a gun let alone handle one

109- I have to say, I don't know what America's gun laws are specifically so maybe I shouldn't be commenting, but don't you think it's bad that people who "don't know how to own a gun let alone handle one" can legally buy them?
