An apparent booze-fueled dispute over loud music between two groups at a Chino campground over the weekend escalated to the point where men from both sides drew guns and opened fire.
No one was hurt, but the two alleged gunmen have plenty to explain.
It turns out that the rival gun-toting campers were both Los Angeles County sheriff's deputies.

I think people who were not possessors of an official badge would be in much more trouble than the deputies are in.

Only the police and military can be trusted with firearms.

Idiots with a badge. And we’re supposed to respect and trust these “professional” lawbringers. I think I trust the lady that cuts my hair before any of these ‘roided out schmucks.

While it is not surprising that these morons couldn't manage to hit each other, they are extremely lucky that one of the rounds they fired "in the air" did not land on an innocent camper.
They should lose their jobs and pensions and get cells in exchange.

Sheriff’s spokesman Steve Whitmore said both deputies have been relieved of duty with pay.
###
They will be punished by being given an extra week or two of paid vacation.

I’m a biker.
I go to LOTS of outdoor parties. Club members, patch holders, you get the picture.
Everybody gets plenty drunk.
Everybody’s got a piece.
NOBODY, EVER whips it out and starts blasting caps, because EVERBODY KNOWS it will end VERY BADLY.
BureauKaRATZ on the other hand, are stupid people. That’s why they work for the gubbmint.
Only RATZ think they can blast away with impunity.
A badge and a gunz = recipe for mayhem and disaster.
Disarm all RATZ now! Before someone gets really hurt.
Oh wait, they already have.
