Title: Ky. Lawmaker fires gun in office, calls it mistake
Post by: walkstall on January 08, 2014, 07:25:30 PM
They Walk Among Us.  I would say she needs more gun safety classes.



FRANKFORT, Ky. — A Kentucky lawmaker said Wednesday that she accidentally fired a gun in her Capitol Annex office on the first day of the legislative session this week, prompting a police investigation. No one was hurt.

Democratic Rep. Leslie Combs of Pikeville issued a statement saying the shot was fired unintentionally Tuesday and that state police assigned to the Capitol found no evidence to indicate any portion of the discharged round left her office.

Combs did not offer details, but a House colleague who said he was in her office at the time described it as an accident.

"She was emptying the weapon and she thought that it was empty and pointed it away and down and pulled the trigger and it went off," said Rep. Jeff Greer, D-Brandenburg. "Thankfully, no one was hurt. I know she feels terrible about it. ... It's just an unfortunate event."

Just be glad that their offices are bomb proof, or we might be hearing more about banning guns because this idiot shot someone in an adjoining office.

She lost count of how many bullets she removed? Was she unloading a machine gun?

It was a semi-automatic handgun.  Hmm...So she took the clip out and did not clear the chamber.  Rule number one, all guns are loaded.

AND pulled the trigger, lmao.  And No, didn't put the hammer down softly with a thumb.  And didn't clear it with the slide to begin with.

Every single thing a dem-lib-prog gun-control person would be ignorant of.

Liberals with guns are the price we pay for the Second Amendment.

And liberals AT ALL are the price for the First.
