true but atleast he called it in. thats a responsible gun owner.
Responsible after severe irresponsibility.
A1604 – Unless you have specific information about this weapons discharge, how can you state it was due to “severe irresponsibility?” The only investigation needed is to determine how this discharge occurred, it was an accident and no one was injured. Might be more to this if CSI is being requested. We’ll just have to wait for more information.
A1604 – Again, unless you have specific/first hand information, what leads you to believe the trigger was pulled causing the weapon to fire? You have no clue as to the cause of the weapon discharging. The only “irresponsibility” I know for certain involves people commenting about the cause of the reported discharge without any verified information regarding this incident to support their comment.
And that’s why the person involved should not have firearms.
Soooo, using the same thought process, everyone who’s ever been in a traffic accident should have there license suspended.
Think of the lives saved. We all know there are far more more vehicle deaths than guns deaths.
Actually its people driving cars that kill people because cars and guns cant do anything without help.
You’re way behind the times. Look at recent automobile death stats and compare to firearms deaths. Cars have gotten a lot safer. We haven’t done anything about firearms. We have licensing and training to operate vehicles, as well, plus periodic testing. But, gun worshipers continue to swallow and spew the propaganda.
No gun worship, just counting way to save lives. How many repeat offenders are still driving while there enjoying the get out of jail free card!
Just think how many more we could save by eliminating firearms from the general populace, then!
i looked it up. More than 1/2 the gun deaths are suicide. Its harder to tell how many car deaths are the result of suicide. Sadly a majority of those deaths would still be there without guns. People need to focus on the problem not the tool.
But a large part of the problem *is* the tool. A tool optimized for killing.

Over 2 million first time gun owners since the first of the year. Thanks to the defund the police crowd, riots without police response and Biden’s threat of more gun controls. Guns sales haven’t been this strong since Obama was elected.
Unfortunately I don’t believe it would be that many. How many suicides did we save by enclosing the tool on 154? Seems now we have the train as the next tool of choice.
I bought mine because of the Nazi’s attempt take over of America..I guess we all have our reasons.
your right, people should not be negligent. Thats why they notified the police…
1604-
Look out you predjudice and ignorance are showing.
The term “Negligent discharge” is used in this case as a “Dispatching term” to differentitiate from an aggressive intentional discharge for the benefit of the responding and listening officers. (As in the subsequet case of a “person shooting in thee 4000 blk of State Street, which by the way is right at the jurisdictional boundries of the City and County, if you care.) The actual determination of whether it is actually “negligent” comes as the result of and AFTER the investigation of the evidence and facts, both of which you have chosen to launch yourself past to make you predjudicial comment due to your total ignorance of the facts. The simple fact that the weapon owner reported the “unintended discharge” (which by-the-way, is how it should have been dispatched to not be in a judgemental and predjudicial mind set.) suggests that the owner is trying to be responsible instead of trying to hide the fact that it happened.
If you don’t like guns and don’t want one then don’t buy, own or get one. But don’t use your biases to tell anyone else that they shouldn’t own one. You and Beto simply want to totally ignore the 2nd Amendment because you don’t like guns. Well lets apply that same thing to the 4th Amendment. I think you have stuff I don’t like you to have in your home, like dope or I think you have someone else’s property, so I, as a police officer am just going to walk into you residence anytime I want to and search and seize those things without a report, a search warrant or your permission. Unreasonable search and seizure. What is the difference? Oh yeah I get it… you like that Constitutional Right and protection, just not the other one! So do you get to chose or do I?
Well, that mostly looked like English.
I have firearms. I know firearms and firearm safety. Unintended discharge is negligence, pure and simple. And the second amendment is an anachronism referring to the establishment of a “well-regulated” militia. There’s nothing well-regulated about the current gun worship insanity.
If we back up to the headline, it is wrong. Roger’s first sentence regarding the headline reports “Negligent discharge of a firearm in the 1000 block of Cliff Drive.” In the first paragraph of “Comments,” second sentence, it is written “The owner of gun called in the accidental discharge.” The headline did not identify the incident correctly as this incident was not reported as a negligent discharge but an accidental discharge. The error in wording caused 1604 to go into a rant about “negligent” handling of the weapon involved, suicides & gun deaths vs cars, etc. Don’t need to make a mountain out of a mole hill 1604. It appears you spent time on research that really didn’t apply. Do a little research in learning how to relax.
How come nobody ever quotes the 2nd amendment after the punctuation mark?
“the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed”
