Training and safety doesn't mean shit when every day there are stories of idiots shooting themselves or others because they got complacent.
Here's the corollary. People always get complacent when things become familiar. Its why we have reports in this thread of seasoned cops putting their gun down so their 4 year old nephew can walk in and pick it up and kill someone or himself.
So should everyone be penalized because of the actions of a few idiots?
