Oh dear.
Kentucky Democrat Alison Grimes is hoping to defeat incumbent Senator Mitch McConnell come election time, and she (or her handlers) evidently decided that this would be the way to win over potential voters and Second Amendment supporters:
Whenever he's not busy pandering to DC lobbyists, I welcome Sen. McConnell to come shoot with me at the range any day pic.twitter.com/p00Zm3fGks

Unfortunately for Ms. Grimes, all that photo accomplished does is confirm that Dems who want to take away guns for our safety know very little about, you know, actual gun safety.

1st needs to take to gun safety course MT @AlisonForKY: I welcome McConnell to come shoot w me at the range any day http://t.co/pe9Ii6VbLa

That’d be a good start.
Lack of safety almost hints of a staged photo. Weird!! RT @JohnEkdahl: Speaking of pandering… http://t.co/c9krs8MgOP…

So, bottom line: In an attempt to seem "gun friendly" @AlisonForKY exhibits poor gun safety practices. pic.twitter.com/Ali8YFP7G7

Hi @AlisonForKY! Ear and eye protection would give this staged photo an authenticity it sorely lacks. #ProTip

Incidentally, no ear or eye safety pic.twitter.com/FBIt7A576e

So cute when they try. No eyes or ears. Bad gun safety

.@AlisonForKY The sound you are hearing is millions of Americans diving for the floor because YOU ARE RANGE UNSAFE. Eyes & ears, doofus.
— Moe Lane (@Ogiel23) (@moelane) November 8, 2013
We sure as hell wouldn’t want to go shooting with her.
.@AlisonForKY Do not pick up a gun if you do not know how to use it safely (unless being trained by a certified instructor [ie, not me]).

That’s good advice. Otherwise, beware:
