I Wonder...

Okay, okay. Everyone and their brother has sent me the story about the Detroit cop whose service pistol magically fired while in a holster, killing the woman dancing behind him. The story goes that she went to hug the officer - who was dancing with his wife - when somehow the officer's gun fired, striking her directly in the chest and killing her almost instantly.

My take? The wife got pissed off, grabbed her husband's gun, and shot the woman. Here she is, dancing with her husband, when some sweet young thing comes up and starts trying to do the horizontal mambo with her man. She gets mad, grabs his gun, [BANG] and then the bullshit of "it somehow went off" becomes the coverup story.

It's either that or the giant talking broccoli stalks from Planet Weembo getting out of hand...

Look, it's quite simple. The story is a crock of shit. Holstered guns do not discharge on their own. Period. Full stop. Guns carried IWB are almost always pointed down, especially a full-sized service pistol. There is simply no way this woman could have accidentally pulled the gun out of the holster, gotten something inside the trigger guard, *AND* shot herself in the chest with the gun. This is either the most bizarre case of suicide-by-cop ever, or a pissed off wife.

Especially knowing that the thin blue line would protect and serve one of their own...

That is all.
