At this point I think we should ban people instead of guns

Yes well the odds are if you are going to get shot it will be by a friend or relative, not some nameless intruder.

I wonder how many firearm incidents do have alcohol as a contributing factor.

yep, just another Darwin Awards candidate. Unfortunately, banning guns would not help the situation very much, if for no other reason than there is no cure yet for terminal stupidity...

Eh, even if he didn't have a gun, he probably would've thrown a knife or shot a crossbow at him. Stupidity comes in more forms besides guns :)

Yep. If he didn't have a gun, it most likely would a been a bet that he couldn't hit the cup with a knife. :p

At a familiy gathering? Oh lets just try to shoot this cup on my head as my wife and kids watch...

Yep, a definite shoe-in for a Darwin Award.

If this happened here in MI (lots of drinking and then the accident) I think the shooter would just get off with a warning. Last year some parents got blotto'd and passed out while the family dog ate the fingers off their infant, they just got a warning. Drinking can be a great excuse, I guess, so long as you're not driving.

They were drunk or... what?

What I don't understand is that nobody of the whole family tried to stop them... They just stood there and watched?!?
