An unnamed off-duty Detroit police officer accidentally shot his girlfriend in Lyon Township last week, according to Oakland County Sheriff’s deputies.
According to the sheriff’s press release, “He indicated that he had previously unloaded his department issued firearm, believed it to still be unloaded, and was demonstrating building search techniques. He stated that while doing so he accidentally discharged the weapon, striking his girlfriend in the chest.”
The girlfriend confirmed the accidental shooting while at the hospital.
“The victim explained to detectives her boyfriend was showing her how to safely handle a firearm when her boyfriend accidentally shot her,” the sheriff’s report stated. |

Not an accident. Negligence.
Cardinal rules of gun safety:
1. Treat every firearm as if it is loaded, even if you know it isn't.
2. Never point a gun at something you don't want to destroy.
3. Keep your finger off the trigger until you are ready to shoot.
Had he observed any one of them he wouldn't have shot her. |

TO REMEMBER |
| A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. ~ Marcus Tullius Cicero (42B.C) |
