Porter thought he had his training gun in his holster, not his real, loaded gun, his lawyer said.
First rule of firearms: Assume your firearm is still unloaded if it was unloaded the last the time you checked

Lmao the fucking firearms instruction assumed the gun wasn’t loaded, pointed it at something he didn’t want to shoot, and pulled the fucking trigger.
Really cool the people teaching cops to safely use firearms gets a 0% on their real world firearms safety test.
I don’t believe in IQ, but cops do, and they reject applicants with high IQ because they’re seen as too intelligent. So it shows where their priorities are.
Yup love to bring up to people that cops have successfully sued for the right to discriminate against people capable of complex thought.
Further, it wasn’t a firearm training. Batons and shit.
They should have to secure live firearms in a locker when entering a training room, similar to what cops do when bringing a suspect in for booking. Ensures no fuck ups can occur.
Dumb as fuck cops and ex-cops out in the world making it a worse place for everyone.
