I seen that to.Why in the world would anyone take a loaded gun in to a school of young children that are unfamiliar with weapons .Then he apparently never unloaded it or if he thought he did he did not safty checked it to see if it was unloaded a second time then a third time.And plus he did not treat that gun as it was loaded even if he thought he unloaded it. The guy I'm sure feels terrible ,but action needs to be taken agianst him.

"When she attempted to place the magazine back into the Glock, her gun accidentally discharged."
That statement always makes me laugh...How the hell can a gun accidentally discharge? She pulled the trigger, that's how. LOL
Kinda like when somebody asks you "Did you catch anything" after a hunt. I usually reply "no, but I killed a deer." Makes em think...

I think it was last year we had a state trooper here who shot himself in the leg when he sat on his weapon. He was in street clothes and took off the gun so not to scare people when he went into a fast-food joint. Getting back into the car he forgot where the gun was. Ouch

Thats the dangerous thing about glocks. They have no safety, if you pull the trigger the gun goes off. There is no such thing as an accidental disharge. Only a negligent disharge.

How do you forget that there is a round in the chamber? I guess she usually didn't load her gun. We had a guy down here went to put his glock in ts holster and his radio antenna hit the trigger and he shot himself in the ass. Glocks are bad little guns.
