Look at this copaganda shit.
Did he fire it by "accident"? If not - what was he aiming at?
Apparently he had his gun drawn so he could use the attached flashlight. I'm not a gun person but doesn't that mean the safety wasn't engaged? Why would you disengage the safety if you're just using the flashlight? Anyway that wall was a terrorist.
Glocks (which most cops use) don't have safeties. All you have to do is pull the trigger.
Well that seems... not ideal.
From their point of view it's extraordinarily ideal.
It is ideal because a loaded weapon should fire every time the trigger is pulled, without fail.
Glocks have multiple different safety mechanisms to ensure the gun will not fire unless the trigger is pulled.
Why would you aim the weapon at something, pull the trigger, and ever expect it to not fire?
