Upholding the Second Amendment while representing the people.

[rustbeltvoice]

Rep. Leslie Combs' (D-Pikeville, Kent.) gun went off in her government office.

That incident happened just before the State of the State address delivered by Governor Steve Beshear.

"I am a gun owner. It happens."

blasé, ho-hum, nothing to comment about

Some people do not embarrass.

1. "It happens."

Yes it does...to fuckups.

2. She needs lessons in gun safety and usage. Or quit carrying.

3. It should never happen. No responsible gun owner would ever say, "It happens".

Apparently she never learned how to safely load and unload the weapon. She needs to learn before she picks up a firearm again.

4. I'm also a gun owner, Les, and "it" has NEVER happened to me.

5. "I thought it was totally clear," Combs said.

Translation: She did not know that removing the magazine does not necessarily mean the gun is unloaded.

She's going to switch to a revolver. That won't help if she does not keep her finger off the trigger until she intends to shoot her weapon.
