Idiot, doesn't know the main rule of gun safety is to always treat the weapon as if it is loaded.

I'm sure Alex is happy his weapon was "first checked by a weapons safety professional."

What's the difference? I'll wait....

The purpose of the 'gun stunt' was to frighten the jury.

Useful tactic just in case the jury forgot burnings, lootings and violence would start that night... with matches, walking around money, masks, tents, homemade 'looking' signs, pallets of weapons, and hordes of help getting them bailed out of jail... would be ready and willing to keep the horror going.

It might be considered 'jury intimidation'...

Are you gonna believe Brandon Media newspuppet Yevgeny, or your own lying eyes?

The photos of Kyle & the gun he DID use are available all over the place.

The DA did NOT use the same gun.

The gun the DA used does NOT look the same, especially where a person used their LEFT hand.

TOTALLY DIFFERENT.

Another case of the DA mis-representing evidence, IMO.

I hope the judge caught this.

Thanks msn, I always rely on the “safety professional” to check my firearms when I play around and aim them at random people.

Maybe if this guy checked the chamber himself and let the bolt slam that sound would have helped intimidate the jury to convict.

I never read that he pointed it at the jury except in this “fact check”. I read that he pointed it at “people” without explanation as to who was meant.

Not exactly

But bad gun safety and optics

What was with the dippity doo hair...

Gen X .....hmm

Both Binger and—later—defense attorney Mark Richards stated that it was
first checked by a weapons safety professional.

Thanks Alecs...
