But chamber the shell ONLY when you are ready to fire the weapon. Not when you are merely carring the weapon.

Do what?!?

Why? So I can look cool like the Hollywood types that always have to chamber a round before they shoot the bad guy?

Does the phrase "Lock and Load" mean anything to you?!

So, you're saying this Cop was OK in this matter? I'm sorry, but there's no reason for him to have a chambered round while attending a play, it seems to me. Besides that, if he's such a safe person, how did his Browing "go off?"

Does basic gun safety in a crowed theater mean anything to you? He was in a theater, not a crime scene, battlefield, nor firefight. There are times to have a shell loaded, and frankly a crowded theater isn't one of them.
