Journalistic malpractice.
“When the gun fired..”
No, when the officer fired the gun.
They do the same dumb-ass reporting about car accidents. “When the car drove off the road.” NO, when the person lost control of the vehicle and hit something/someone.

Why would the officer point the gun at someone while teaching a gun safety course?
Why would his finger be inside the trigger if he didn’t intend to shoot?
Guy should not be able to teach these courses again. Seriously, he SHOT someone. Accidentally makes it even worse because it happened out of stupidity rather than deliberately.

There is nothing scarier than an “unloaded” gun. All guns are loaded all the time.

If you are carrying it concealed protection, can we not assume you are ready to use it?
In other words, those rules still fit.

LOL...one of my favorite lines from the show was...

That’s the “passive voice” — a deliberate technique adopted nearly wholesale by both reporters and law enforcement publicity personnel to avoid any implication that any certain person actually did any certain thing. Let somebody else go out on a limb and make the assertion.

These are very early reports. When you consider that many millions of people taken CCW courses, the safely record is excellent. Let us wait a little to see just what happened.

Yep, Hold on there, Mr. Intruder, let me load my gun.

“All guns are loaded all the time.”
That’s my theory.

allow loaded guns in a classroom ! The "instructor" needs to be placed
on the "bow and arrow" squad.
