[Atlas Sneezed]

"And people who handle guns like I do, NEVER have to explain an accidental death, accidental discharge or have a gun get dropped and kill an innocent."

The same could be said for those who are denied the right to own or carry guns, which is what the gun-grabbing tyrants are all about.

Are you hostile to gun rights, or just incapable of conceiving that a cop could do something stupid and dangerous?

Oh, I think most everyone should have a gun. An armed population is a polite population. I just take a 'sanity check' when people insist that it is wise to carry a live round in the chamber at all times. Why is it illegal (and stupid) to drive around hunting with a loaded weapon, but the preferred SOP with a pistol? Shotguns and rifles must either have the breach open (showing an empty gun) or the action/bolt open during transport. But, apparently pistols should be carried with a live round. That's where I draw the line. It takes just a few moments to change a pistol from a 'club' to a lethal weapon. Clubs aren't known to go off accidentally.
