This strikes me as an absolute statement, and there are NO absolutes (usually). As I've reported before, many years ago I had an accidental discharge, caused when I activated the thumb safey on a Llama .380 1911-style pistol. My finger NEVER touched the trigger, the problem was with the gun. There was no negligence on my part, it was just an accident caused by a defective weapon. Fortunately it happened on the range and no damage was caused, other than my own personal "accident" (fill in your own details here :-)
