More on the Arkansas University Negligent Discharge

Local news reports  As we mentioned the other day, it was just an accident.
Matthew Williamson admitted to 40/29 news he didn't check to see if the gun was loaded.
Williamson was hit in the hand.

UAPD said Williamson's Taurus revolver was loaded with a small shotgun round.
The fragments of the ammunition could be seen in the wall near a fire alarm of the public radio station lobby.

Williamson told 40/29 news he did not have a conceal carry license.
Wen caught without a concealed carry license, they're always on the way to the range.  For me, that's too easy. This young man should lose his gun rights twice, once for the negligent discharge and once for carrying concealed.  Aren't firearms supposed to be unloaded while transporting them to the shooting range?

What's your opinion?  Please leave a comment.

  1. No acknowledgement that I was right about the type of gun? Accident sounds suspicious here, since the Taurus Judge's trigger pull in double action is eight pounds. The owner may have cocked it and was monkeying with the trigger.

    1. How insecure are you, Greg? You need to be acknowledged about having been right on the other thread? I'm glad you admit "accident" sounds suspicious.

    2. I'm as insecure as you are qualified to make psychological assessemnts.
