For the simple reason that it won't. And any amount of cajoling or pleading won't make a jot of difference.

People will try and take ever more "creative" selfies and things will go wrong.

In this instance, a 21-year-old Russian woman was reportedly in the throes of taking a selfie while pointing a 9mm handgun at her head. I don't know if this signaled that she was having a bad day or a good one.

However, what resulted is the gun went off and she is now in a serious condition.

Agence France-Presse reports that she was in her office and found the gun, which had been left behind by a security guard.
