He must have skipped the ''gun safety'' classes.

There They Go Again

Obviously the guy is an idiot if he can't load a firearm without pointing it at himself. At least, however, he was able to read. Every gun show I've ever attended has a big sign at the entrance that says, "Absolutely no loaded firearms beyond this point". There is, though, some question about the reporter's ability to read and comprehend the English language. He stated that the man was shot "at a Georgia gun show". Being at the show is not the same thing as being in the parking lot. Next the reporters will be saying that someone was shot "at a Georgia gun show" if it happened anywhere in the greater Atlanta area at the same time a gun show was going on. Obviously a reporter's ethical code consists of, "any mistruth in order to get a scary headline".

    This guy ticks me off. It is idiots like him that feed into the anti-gun hysteria.
