She wasn’t killed but your point stands: The headline, while obviously being clickbaity and maybe even trying to be funny hides the underlying problem:
Somehow, the dog had triggered the shotgun – which had a live round chambered – to fire, damaging the vehicle and striking a female passerby.

It is illegal in Nebraska to drive with a loaded shotgun in your vehicle.
More like “Unqualified gun owners criminal neglect kills woman at convenience store.”
That’s what the dog wants you to think 🐕

Found the dogs defense attorney
there are no qualifications for gun ownership in Nebraska.
only a 5 states require a license for a shot gun, in the form of a Firearms ID. They require no coursework on training.
Typically you only need to take a gun safety class if you are buying a handgun, and even then only a dozen states require that.
That is a big part of the American Problem.
do you live in Nebraska? you are welcome to move there and participate in their politics and change the laws.
but I don’t think you’re interested in doing that.
So everyone in Nebraska is an unqualified gun owner.
legally. they are qualified.
according to your feelings? i guess not.
Nobody died. There was 1 minor injury
