OK, I admit that I go to a gun show about once every 5 years. Last show I attended was the Indy 1500 and that was 3 or 4 years ago and I went in unarmed. Before that show I attended a show in Merrillville, I was armed. The officer at the door asked me to disarm, I pulled my weapon, dropped my magazines and racked my slide as per his instructions. But that is what he told me to do.
But, based on the description of what happened at the Crown Point show, a guy comes to the door, the officer asks for his gun. The officer drops the magazine. The officer pulls the trigger and discharges the bullet in the chamber.
How is that the gun owner's fault??? The officer knew the gun was loaded, so why did he pull the trigger? Should he not have racked the slide to eject the round from the chamber?!?
If the officer asked for a loaded gun then how is it the fault of the gun owner?
The gun owner is at fault. How f'n stupid could you be! Numnutz like that is the reason we have to keep dropping more $'s to the NRA to keep fighting for our rights. Sure the cop forgot the rules of gun safety but I blame the person who left round in chamber. Either way someone could have been killed and he they both would be to blame. But it starts with the owner who KNOWS not to bring loaded gun into facility.
