Blame Gun
Similar to Finger Pointing. A knee-jerk reaction to assign
blame to someone in a team setting for a series
of mistakes, unmet goals, etc. that cause a serious
failure. Once the Blame Gun has been pointed
and fired, the victim may be let go, written up, demoted,
shunned, etc. Ironically, often times the shooter is as
much to blame for a failure as the victim.

that big account."
Moe: "The boss pointed the Blame Gun at me, but
I convinced him it was Fred's fault, so Fred
got shot instead."
Joe : "Well played."
