We're the Only Ones Breaking Down Enough

They saw a rifle in the back seat of Venable's car and Snow attempted to take it apart, Miller said. That's when the gun went off, he said.

All by its own self, no doubt.

Why the hell was this boob trying to take apart a rifle he obviously knew nothing about?

And naturally, it was the citizen who was cited.

Here's a question for all of you who aren't "Only Ones": What's the first rule of field-stripping a firearm?

That's right--point it at someone with your finger on the trigger!

And what's the first rule for when you're not certain of how an unfamiliar firearm operates?

Bingo! Pick it up and start dicking around with it.

Yeah, but you've got to hand it to Wallace. He apparently was wearing Level 3 body armor. He was expecting something like this.

You know, those JWOGs are pretty common. Although, out of all the guns I've handled... not a one.

Some day I will use your site to calculate the probability that a gun is a JWOG. Public safety, the children and so forth.

Sounds like an incompetent jackass. I agree with tjh; if I was working with that bunch, I would be wearing body armor full-time also.
