IN SOUTH AFRICA THEY CALL THAT... 'THURSDAY'...

-- "A 69-year-old Canadian has been shot dead at an evening barbecue picnic known as a bush braai, at Kruger National Park in South Africa.   Authorities say it appears to be an accident... ‘A private guide accidentally discharged a firearm, resulting in the fatal injury,’ said the South African Police Service." --
UPDATE:   Hmmm.. pretty much as I thought...
-- "The 69-year-old male tourist approached the concession operator, who was holding a rifle and asked if it was a real firearm.  While the operator was demonstrating that it was a real rifle, it reportedly discharged, killing the tourist instantly." --
CBC confirms it was the nasty, evil gun...
-- "While demonstrating that it was a real rifle, the firearm reportedly discharged." --
Seems this was some sort of new AI rifle with a mind of its own.
