When the word gets out to the left that even gun shows are, in effect, "gun free zones", I wonder when the first gun show shooting will occur.
I've never had a ND (though folks do say there are those who have, and those who will... I'll try to stay out of either group), I have a big problem with treating someone who made a mistake, harming no one, like a violent criminal. Yeah, NDs are bad juju, and I'm pretty sure that he's punishing himself pretty severely anyway. Not only that, but he's lost a lot of respect in his own peer group.
As for 'legality'... well, I agree that a negligent discharge in a populated area should be a chargeable violation, with perhaps a fine. I just don't buy into "It's the Law, so it must be Right" stuff.
SamTucker. Yeah, that was a DEA agent crowing to the kids about he was the only person present who was qualified to hold a "Glock Fo'tay", right before shooting himself in the leg. Then he limped back and went on to explain that "Dat's what happens!" or some such.
Well... yeah! If a moron handles a loaded weapon, crap like that happens!
Of course, being a gov-goon, he was not only not charged or punished, but carried out an effort to sue whomever was responsible for the release of the video. Hey.... he's an Untouchable, just like Horiuchi.
