So you consider a pneumatic nail gun to be a safe tool?
A tool that can fire a 1-3" steel nail or staple at 100+
mph 1-3" deep into wood is safe. Apparently there are no
dangerous tools in the world.

I do, yes as the safety had to have been removed from the nail gun. Unless
it was pressed against the skull and the trigger pulled, it should not have
fired the nail. But then, any tool in the hands of the right dummy is
unsafe, regardless of the safety devices installed.
And where did you get the "100+ mph 1-3" deep into wood ..." bit? It's
nonsense and makes as much sense as removing or toying with safety designs
provided with the guns.
