Because loaded shotguns in a box are safer than just lying around, NOT

Hassan Tate had a loaded shotgun in his apartment. So rather than just leave it sitting out he went to put it in a box, like ya do. But, butterfingers Hassan lost control of the (did we mention it was loaded? OK, good) shotgun putting it in said box, it discharged and a 2 year old was the sudden recipient of 25 buckshot pellets in his legs.

Tate will be charged with aggravated assault, endangering the welfare of a child and possession of a firearm by a felon. The little boy will be OK. Of course when taken to the emergency room, the little boys mom couldn't exactly remember what the hell happened to cause her son to get 25 shotgun pellets in his legs. NICE. After some coaxing (read threats of child endangerment charges which JCD STILL thinks are warranted if she won't tell the truth to protect her child from idiots like Hassan Tate) she admitted, oh yeah, it must have been when that shotgun went off in her home.

Again, the child will be OK.

You can send Hassan Tate's Christmas card c/o the Hudson County Jail...
