Sorry, no one has ever been shot with an unloaded gun – it is a physical impossibility. Many people have been shot with a rifle that was believed to be unloaded, but believing a gun is unloaded does not make it so.
Exactly how thick-headed are you? Look up the words "irony" and "metaphor" in a dictionary. Get someone to explain them to you. My kids understand the statement I made.

BTW, I did find those terms. They were located on either side of "cavalier" which I found alongside the 13th definition for "unloaded": "a casually formed belief, sometimes held about weapons; cavalier" wink


Sometimes, the air you 'let in'matters less than the air you 'let out'.
