Found on another forum. Cop removes pistol from lockbox in jail, manages to shoot self in ass and Border patrol Agent in the foot.

What a stupid fish. A real dum bass.

I'm the only one in this jail professional enough to....

I especially like how the gun is left unattended on the floor - behind what appear to be inmates.

Why would they allow the gun securing in an inmate accessible area? I agree they look like inmates because they're sent to their knees when someone with two brain cells to rub together gets involved. Somebodies head UP the chain of command needs to roll as well for that set up.

A perfect example of why you ALWAYS make sure your holster is clear of things that can snag said trigger as the gun is inserted.  This is especially important if you wear your firearm under things like baggy clothing, sport coats, etc.

Better yet, put the gun in the holster THEN clip the holster to your belt.

And, as always, NEVER POINT THE MUZZLE AT ANYTHING YOU DON'T INTEND TO DESTROY!!  (Your own butt, your fellow officer't foot, etc., etc....)

Did anyone else giggle a bit at the way the ND officer was holding his butt and walking funny?

Or am I just evil? 

I hope he's learned his lesson.

Luckily, he missed his brain during the ND, though he came this >< close, as his head was up his *expletive deleted*ss at the time.

A cop with poor gun handling skills? OMG, next you'll find a politician who's corrupt...

exactly my thoughts!

[Gowen]

Surprising about the lack of blood on the floor.  Did you notice how the ND officer's boss did everything but grab him by the ear and drag him into the office?  I wouldn't want to hear that conversation.

A fellow RSO (a very crusty and seasoned gentleman with the weight of years behind his wisdom) once told me "there's nothing more dangerous than a cop with a safe or unloaded gun."

This was long before rasta-cop and this video.
