I've always said that carrying without a holster is a pain in the butt.

The incident comes less than a month after a shooting at a suburban Denver theater that left 12 dead and 58 injured.

The incident comes less than a week after the final day of the Olympics.

About the same amount of relevance...

Holsters people, get a darn holster. Even a cheap POS Fobus is better then nothing.

I'm sure that twelve inch drop from his seat made it go off by itself

I'd like to know the model. What modern gun discharges from being dropped? I know there are still a few.

I am thinking a raven, sterling, bryco, etc....The manual on those "weapons" states they are not to be carried with one in the chamber yet folks still do. Some people actually use these guns for daily carry and the fact that the "boom" was not too loud.

I guess the silence of the weapon gives new meaning to the word "can"

This requires further explanation. How do you shoot yourself in the arse when a gun hits the floor? Seems it would have had to land hammer-first and pointing upwards or something. It just doesn't make logical sense.

And toast always lands buttered side down, what doesn't make sense?

Um. . . .if he is sitting on the seat, presumptively about 18 inches above the floor and the weapon hit hammer first, wouldn't that tend to lead to the assumption that the end opposite the hammer could have quite easily been pointing up at said tush?

Gun falls out of his back pocket and discharges into his butt when it falls to the floor in a movie theater

The only thing I can think of that would go hammer first is a safety-less revolver. Hit the hammer and nail the primer?

I have my Kel-Tec P11 inertial fire a round from waistband height drop, when it squirted out of a crappy holster. But it was a direct muzzle down strike.

Oh my god! The Liberals were right! They do have a will of their own and they're coming to kill us all! Run for your lives!

The man told officers the gun fell from his pocket Tuesday night as he was adjusting himself in the seat and that it discharged when it dropped to the floor.

Unpossible!

I've read on this gun expurt forum Indiana Gun Owners that firearms only discharge when fingers on on triggers. Is the paper going to disagree with all those expurts on INGO.

1. Eez gon, eez not safe.

2. It's a snake, not a &^%$#* toy, stop treating it as a toy and "jist poot eet in meye pocket."

3. Use a holster. No, not that, a real holster with a real gun belt.

4. Eez gon, eez not safe.

INGO Safety Nanny out.

Crappy sear? Or the gun was already in a dangerous state (worn parts)?
