    And in the E.R. I work in, we see stupid GSW's. One guy shot his friend when he picked up his coat with his pistol in it (no holster). But usually it is people not clearing the chamber and pulling the trigger when taking down the weapon for cleaning.

    This happened in Indy? My office investigates every GSW in the county, including self inflicted, and I don't recall a crotch shot any time recently.

    DUHH - Don't think you read the news report - The teen that shot himself in the groin - Happened (stated in the report) in CHICAGO!
    Don't think the OP has anything to worry about as far as giving out privileged information!!

    Guys, stop going off topic, we are suppose to be talking about the HIPAA violation here, who cares about the crotch shot.

    OP thanks for sharing. If you're going to post on here you need to develop a very thick skin. A large percentage of the members here are self-proclaimed lawyers, LEOs or cognitive know-it-alls. There are a few nice and intelligent people though who can read a posting without turning into an idiot. It's the nature of the beast.

    I thought these responses you are referring too was by design to drive the Noob's away. :)

    Not Borderline HIPPA. Stop with the HIPPA bs. No names. No identity.

    It's just a story and a good one Aaron. Thanks for posting it. I enjoy your stories about real life from the ER.

    Another AssHat out there posing as a Gansta wantabe. We can only hope he serves as an example to people around him of what can happen if you don't respect your firearm.

    That's hilarious! I used to be a Chef/restaurant manager in Chicago and a lot of the back of the house guys were bangers who carried the exact same way. I always wanted to start a 'you'll shoot your junk off' pool.

    I had one a couple years back did the same thing. Holsterless carry in the front of his pants, blew the business end of the young man clean off. Best/worst part was he waited about 12 hours to come in. Suprapubic and eunuch'd.

    Had another who ultimately offed himself with a .25acp Beretta to the liver. Apparently attempting to draw from a shirt pocket.

    I left ER almost 3 years ago, sometimes I miss those cases.

    OMGeeez HIPPO!!!

    Ugh. If I had a dollar for every time I've been threatened with a HIPAA lawsuit by some ignorant yahoo with no idea what HIPAA even stands for, let alone what the bill contains.

    Nothing about this is even remotely close to a HIPAA violation. Sorry to pile on, but I couldn't help myself.
