The results of a Washington, D.C.-based FBI probe came down Friday, clearing agents of any wrongdoing in the controversial Nov. 7 slugfest between two Bears players at the shooting range. Sources said alcohol had been served after the shooting practice.Translation: After investigating ourselves, we didn't do anything wrong. And we're banning alcohol at the range even though we didn't do anything wrong, as a way of making sure that we don't not do anything wrong again, even though we didn't the first time. Do anything wrong, that is.
The probe found no evidence that alcohol was mixed with guns. But FBI Special Agent in Charge Robert Grant announced he will still ban the use of alcohol by any future group using the FBI's North Chicago shooting facility.
"He was not suggesting any impropriety ... he just wants to make sure an incident like this will not happen again," FBI spokesman Ross Rice said.
Got it?
Boy, am I glad their internal investigation proves they didn't do anything wrong. I guess I was kind of judgmental when I posted on this before, huh?
So kudos to the FBI for figuring out that guns and booze don't mix. Perhaps their example of innovative government safety leadership will spill over into the private sector some day...
