Firearm Discharged @ Murfreesboro Publix

[D3vo]

Firearm discharged in Murfreesboro Publix. I cant imagine.... Always tends to occur when gun legislation is pending.

Never good. Just wait until Gail Kerr at the Tennessean gets her hands on the story.

Probably a Glock.

Yep. Everyone says doom and gloom will happen when these things occur, but nobody will remember it in a couple days. Oh well.

Remember what?

The gun jumped out of the holster by itself and was trying to shoot an innocent bystander; it just missed. Luckily someone got it back under control before it could hurt anyone.

Probably sat down on the terlet, and it fell out on the floor...

Maybe he really hates brussel sprouts.

My wife and I shop at Publix; I hope this doesn't change their corporate policy.

I've had that happen. Fortunately it's in a good pocket holster, so nothing ever happens other than me getting annoyed.

And that makes me wonder if the person who dropped it in the store even had it in a holster.

I found the first line humorous.

Customers at a Publix in Murfreesboro survived a potentially deadly situation Sunday afternoon.

I survive a potentially deadly situation every time I drive on public roads.

Wonder why police refuse to answer if he got a citation? How many guns out there fire when dropped? I'm guessing someone dropped it after removing his trigger from the trigger guard and screaming "it went off all by itself."

[Dennis1209]

Yep! Another case for, "condition ONE and only"...

[monkeylizard]

Maybe he had it tucked in some stylish sweat pants, sans-a-belt, sans-a-holster.

Like it was said, everyone will forget in a couple of days. Kinda like that Kony thing that swept Facebook.

[daddyo]

Heard on the news this morning that police have not yet issued a citation.

[Guest Star1021Scott]

I inquired about the incident the other day when checking out. Apparently the individual bent over to pick something up his firearm fell out of his coat pocket. As far as I know their policy is not changing but they are greatful nobody got hurt. They know alot of folks carry in their store.

What kind of gun was it? I want to know what kind of gun fires when dropped so I make sure I don't own one.

[Guest Smitty]

Sounds like he needs a better holster or just a plain holster period. Who knows. They might charge him with negligence or something similar. Glad no one was injured/killed.

[tnhawk]

Can he be charged with being stupid? The evidence seems to be strong enough to convict him.
