Working with Holsters, Clothing, and Self Inflicted Wounds

[Double Naught Spy]

This sort of thing keeps happening and it should not. It happens with regular folks and it happens with police officers. You may recall the police chief shot himself for a second time (once several years prior). http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/01/21/police-chief-shoots-himself-again_n_4638731.html

He had holstered a draw string with his gun and yanked on his coat, pulling the draw string that pulled the trigger.

Now we have this report of Christina Bond shooting herself while adjusting her bra holster because it was not fitting correctly. I am not sure of the orientation of the holster, but she managed to shoot herself in the eye and was killed.

For goodness sake, if your clothing isn't fitting properly around your gun in some manner, don't go yanking and pulling on things! His gun was a .40 Glock and hers was a .22 revolver.

Darwin strikes again.

Not really since she already had kids and at 55 would not be reproducing again.

What would the gun orientation be in her bra to shoot herself in the eye.

22 revolver? Would like to know what type. It's so damn easy to get casual when slipping it into a holster or pocket.
