UGH! at the link.
1. The firearm is always loaded.
2. Don't point it at something you wanna keep.
3. Double check that there isn't something you wanna keep behind what you wanna shoot.
4. Keep your booger hook off the bang switch unless you mean it.
I learned those rules before I joined the Army and I know they taught them to us in Basic.
I find it hard to believe that The Marines don't do likewise.
SGT Gallagher was doubtlessly taught the four rules and trained on them... and promptly forgot every single one of them in the process of playing grab-ass with his roomie.
I find little to no sympathy for him.
Just as I ask for no sympathy for my own negligent discharge. Happily, I only hurt some drywall.
I was lucky and I learned a lot from my mistake. I suspect that SGT Gallagher will absorb the same lesson and have lots of time to contemplate it from a jail cell.
Better to learn from our mistakes and follow them damn rules to the letter.
