Gun discharge at Eastland Mall, Evansville

[blue2golf]

Don't know what the hell happened. Said a derringer, but I doubt it was a Bond Arms. I wish people would stop making the rest of us look bad.

Carried my Double Tap 45 today in my pocket, in a holster. 12 lb. pull with a trigger guard. I wouldn't trust most derringers though, in caliber or design.

Guns can discharge without fingers on triggers.

This guy needs to rethink his choice in EDC...

As I understand: It was a pocket carry, no holster. This is why we invest in holsters.

Sure seems like when we hear about these incidents, they happen in public restrooms an awfully lot.

Lots of stupid and tragic gun events are happening in E-ville.

Nothin' good comes from coon-fingerin' your junk in public.

Run a quick search on INGO and "what do I do with this here pistol gon when I go to the bafroom?" threads.

Hope the gentleman is OK. Don't carry derringers. Don't carry "in your pock-eet."

Stop the derp, the life you save may be your own.

There is plenty of free information on how to carry, safely in different circumstances. There's no excuse for irresponsibility!

They don't need an excuse that s why they are irresponsible.

Reading the different Facebook comments, you'd think a police officer had done it

Dead Duck, are you sure your not Printcraft in disguise? Priceless.

Seems like there's been a lot of trouble at Eastland Mall. Glad I haven't been there in decades. Don't plan to go there ever...unless they get a gun store, used machinery store and a motorcycle shop there.

Sure would be nice if the papers put more info in their articles, like exact make of gun and the results of the investigations.

My back hurts too much to bend like that.

I too am curious about the type of weapon discharged, it might be something I should avoid.

As for following up, it is a weak point with the much of the media, hence their circling of the drain.
