Nobody should play with guns. They are very dangerous, if not handled
properly. I don't think any of the gun enthusiasts on this list had
advocated playing with guns.

I believe if you watch the video, the mistake the officer who shot himself
made, was trusting his partner. He asked his partner to check that his
pistol was not loaded, and his partner didn't check it. He should have
checked and confirmed for himself that it was, in fact, not loaded. He
unfortunately compounded this error with some poor trigger discipline.
