Is this tire safe?

Recently experienced a shotgun blowout with this Pasela TG. Luckily, I was going very slowly up a hill at the time.

Does the damage on this tire greatly compromise the safety, or is it usable? The first two photos show the two places where some of the rubber was shaved. I've added the third photo to show the warp in the tire bead.
