What the hell is wrong with the world?

I just found out yesterday that a friend of mine form middle school died two nights ago. This is the second friend that has died this year. I'm eighteen; my friends shouldn't be dying already.
I read this article about it on chron.com:

A northwest Houston man remains in custody today after fatally shooting a teenager Sunday night with what he apparently believed was an unloaded pistol, police said.
Allison Aubrecht, 17, died after she was shot at about 5:30 p.m. during a part at a home on the 6500 block of Westview.
Six to eight people, in their teens to early 20s, were at the home when Robert Odom, 20, began waving a small-calliber pistol about the room, Houston police said. Believing the gun to be unloaded, Odom placed it against the back of Aubrecht's head and pulled the trigger, investigators said.
She died at the scene.
Odom was among three people who had been leasing the home. Police believed Aubrecht also occasionally stayed there. Investigators found evidence of drug and alcohol use during a search of the home, but did not say whether they believe it played a part in the shooting.
"There were no arguments and no fights prior to the incident," said homicide Sgt. R.D. Chandler.
Odom was arrested and charged with manslaughter. He remains in the Harris Country Jail with bail set at $30,000.



How careless can you be?
And this is why I don't attend stupid parties.
