Maybe not flat out drunk, but some degree of impairment to try that stunt. Interesting question too, he must have been sober at some point, so, is it normal procedure for FBI agents to stuff their weapon into the back of their pants, which presumably would be before he was drinking? Or do they just do that when they are drunk? Also, what kind of gun was this? Typical semi-auto has a safety, so the safety was off? A Glock doesn't have a traditional safety, it has a double piece trigger, which means it can't fire unless your finger is on the trigger and then it requires a pretty firm pull. So, how did just reaching and picking it up discharge it? People assume the FBI, and cops in general, are firearm experts who understand safety but you don't need to read the news much to see that is not true. The FBI agents are usually more "lawyer" and "accountant" than "lawman". My guess is he picked this gun up with his finger on the trigger. Training for the last 3 decades or longer is that you do not put your finger into the trigger guard until you are actually going to shoot the gun. But then he must have had the safety off or it would not have fired. You can pick a Glock up like you say, which is the only service type semi-auto I know of that does not have a conventional safety, and it won't go off because it takes a strong pull on the trigger. You have to squeeze and develop some significant pressure, the weight of the gun isn't enough. Also your claim that even FBI agents can't properly and safely handle a pistol sure doesn't advance your pro-gun, anyone and everyone should be allowed to have one, agenda. |

From everything that you posted, seems like you would want anyone who wants to carry to be able to do so, unless they are a felon or have previously been confined to a mental hospital. And any time one of these shootings happens in a public venue I don't see you objecting when your fellow gun rights folks say the answer is that it wouldn't have happened if it were not a gun free zone. For example, we went through that with the Orlando nightclub shooting. The gun folks were howling that it was targeted because it was gun free and the solution is to allow anyone and everyone who comes to the club to bring their carry guns. So, what is your position? |

I think the education for CCW is not near good enough (it is all "legal" in nature and not "tactical" enough) and I don't think drunks should be carrying guns. Does that help? The strange thing is the left likes to unload on Zimmermann and his use of force was far more proper than plenty of police shootings. If anything he waited too long to shoot Martin. Unfortunately that is what the law requires in Florida and why the jury had to rule the way they did. He did everything by the book, more so than most cops that you hear about. The only real mistake I saw was he lost sight of Martin and did not take proper defensive precautions, allowing himself to be jumped from behind. |
