Gun and Weed.. at least one of those is illegal in CO. Too bad we haven't illegalize stupidity. Cuz that wouldve solved 99.99% of the issue over night.

honestly, thats the first thing i wondered.

Well, pulling the trigger really is the most conclusive way to find out if its loaded... there's really no mistaking it one way or the other.

Wonder how pissed Darwin is at being cheated twice recently?

I'm thinking that guy who shot himself during the traffic stop may have had something more nefarious in mind and he and the cop were lucky. He could have been trying to hide it but he could have had something else in mind too; I'm sure any officer walking up and finding someone folding their handgun would react badly.

I hate it when people fold a perfectly good gun.

Does folding count as fondling? Either way I'm sure the officer wouldn't like it. :)

They might if you folded/fondled him/her the right way. Might get you out of a ticket!

Let me know how that works for you. On second thought, I don't want to know ...

Was he trying to keister it when it went off?
