Wrong.

#1 Never carry a weapon unless it is ready to shoot. Clambering a round takes two hands. Not a good move.

#2: Never display a weapon unless you are ready to kill that person with it. Never consider using your weapon unless it is to save the life or prevent serious bodily harm to yourself or someone you know. Other exceptions are Castle Doctrine situations.

There is no death penalty for being a dumb racist. Drive away, kick back, turn on the radio, and enjoy life.

Never carry a weapon unless it is ready to shoot.

I was taught never to carry a weapon with a round chambered. Nor do I store one that way. That's how I interpret "ready to shoot". Chambering a round is not a crime. Possession may be!
