"I was attempting to squeeze the light mechanism when my weapon fired and the suspect fell to the ground," the unidentified Plano, Texas, officer said in an affidavit. [More]Why the hell is this incompetent menace to society unidentified?
And why isn't he being sued instead of SureFire?
Using a weapon-mounted light dictates that the barrel of the gun will be pointed where the light is pointed.
ReplyDeleteThe officer didn't seem to grasp the idea that one must be sure of the target, and what lies beyond the target, before even pointing the gun, much less placing his booger hook onto the trigger.
Let's review the facts: He pointed the gun at someone, and pressed the trigger. He claims he was just trying to illuminate the suspect.
Maybe police departments should consider using flashlights, and teaching one of the several hand-held flashlight/gun techniques, if their officers can't seem to make the distinction between the trigger and the handle of the pistol.
Wonder if the gun manufacturer is going to be sued as well?
Bullcrap: the idiot should not have had his finger in the trigger guard on the trigger to activate the light.
ReplyDeleteThrow it out, now.
Don't step on the gas pedal when you mean to step on the brake pedal. Seniors tend to do it from time to time. Why did the brake pedal make my car go faster and run over that pedestrian? It never did that before!
ReplyDeleteCar manufacturers don't get sued for putting the brake pedal next to the gas pedal.
