Return to “Accidental Discharge in Houston Restaurant”

At over $600, price is clearly not a good reason either.
That's not at all certain. The bullet entered her hip and traveled through her abdomen bisecting her intestines. She's in ICU and has been operated on twice.mctowalot wrote:I'm so glad the lady is going to be ok. Both parties will probably become the butt of many jokes.
Please stop teaching CHL classes, sir. If you are telling your students not to carry a round in the chamber, you are putting their lives at risk.Channel 2 was making a big deal about the restaurant having a "no guns" sign. This person may be guilty of being a moron, of not keeping his weapon concealed and of not knowing how to safely carry a weapon. Gun safety - the weapon can't discharge if you don't keep a round in then pipe!! However, unless the restaurant has the state mandated 30.06 sign at the entrance, those "no guns" signs etc are meaningless. I am a CHL instructor and we teach students this as the law.
