  • Oh father of the four winds, fill my sails!
how the heck do you discharge a revolver while unloading it? They should have arrested him, and left her alone...

Q:  What's the quickest way to unload a .38 snubby?

A:  Pull the trigger five times as fast as you can.


And they take away the flight attendant's gun and permit...  give me a break.

The walk among you, carry a gun and have a badge.............Yawn !!  I guess the revolver is gone for good, someone will forget what happened to it during "testing".

Seems like one would have to work at it to have an accidental discharge of a DA revolver when securing it. No reason to have a finger in the trigger guard to unload it and I cannot see how else it would have fired. Oh well, it was said that a T-38 jet trainer could not be put into a spin and the test pilots could not get it to spin but a student pilot in the first training class managed to put one in a spin by accident so I guess anything is possible.

Everytime we idiot-proof something, someone comes up with a better idiot - in this case, LEO idiot.
