A gun is a tool, no better or no worse than any other tool: an axe, a shovel or anything. A gun is as good or as bad as the man using it. Remember that.

And shepherds we shall be, for Thee, my Lord, for Thee.
Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, that our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command.
So we shall flow a river forth to Thee, and teeming with souls shall it ever be.
In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti.

Truly unfortunate and unnecessary. The trainer should be charged with negligent homicide at the very least.

RIP Trooper Kedra.

I used to live not from from Plymouth Township. It's a shame.

Tragic, and very sad indeed.

I know that it's a sensitive thing when someone dies, but they really do need to publish the details of how it happened as a "cautionary tale."

Agreed. There is not enough information out yet. So, to say that the trainer should be charged with negligent homicide is premature at best.

Default It was a simple example of not following safety rules
I don't necessarily think any charges should be filed but he sure should not be teaching firearms training. My prayers go out to all involved.

Default Used not to worry at the range....
The I started thinking. Anyone along the firing line could have a negligent discharge when handling their firearm. It could be all the down at the end of the line but anyone on the line could be in danger.

You can't watch everyone. I've left the range before when I wasn't comfortable with who was there.
