ICE told to get the eff out

[Highway Man]

It becomes second nature. He didn't give it a second's thought.

Going out to a demonstration with a loaded gun, great idea. An even better idea would to have left it at home as a better security measure.

so is negligent discharge.

do we know it was holstered ? If it was tucked in the waistband, then having it loaded is beyond daft.

Video evidence is seemingly showing the spare clip on the floor before it all kicked off. It is possible that "IF" the victim really did reach for his gun in the melee then all he did was grab & misplace this clip. The gun was definitely holstered, it would have to be given the melee.

I have absolutely no idea what the gun etiquett or laws are in the area, but I have NEVER known anyone to casually carry a gun that is in an immediate condition of firing unless a situation has already escalated & they have prepared it.

Again, this one is going to be hard to spin.

It's a way of life. And there are lots of experienced concealed carriers who keep one in the pipe. It's not worth the risk if you need to defend yourself in a split second. Many have ended up dead as a result of wasting time.

Yes I am sure AI tells you that.

Do you personally know any?

I think not, because guns are very dangerous things & anyone with an ounce of sense has an appreciation of this.

I have to confess, some of it came from Reddit. Apparently, almost everyone does it in the US.

Reddit is not reality, far from it.

Obviously, these are civilians.

How might the SAS do it?

He really wasn't. They say he was the kindest man. His job was caring for veterans. The thing that got him in trouble was trying to stand up for a woman who had been assaulted with pepper spray.
