    I don't know if it was a glock. I don't know if it was carried without a holster. I know if you carry in your pocket with out a holster especially a glock do not chamber a round. Simple as that. If you need to have a round chambered get a holster.

    Why are people so scared? Imagine how it feels to live in Syria or Iraq. Americans are soft. The lady said i was trying to get my kids to the back of the store like bullets can't get to the back of the store. That's one good thing about growing up in Philly the sound of gun shots doesn't scare me i just look to assess then determine my next move. People stopped shopping for what? It's not like it was a robbery it was a mistake so move on. I guess the Sheeple in a WROL senerio will be camping at the police dept.

    That's why safeties are good for pocket carry & no safeties for your holstered weapon. IMHO

    Pretty sure if i heard shots inside the grocery store i was in, id take cover quick and my gun would be deployed and asses the situation as best i could, how the hell do you know right away it was a mistake and negligent discharge, guess you carry a crystal ball around that plays out the scenerio while its happening?

    Video said S&W revolver loose in his pocket.

    If that is true it is the guys own fault. Use a holster if pocket carrying and don't put other shit in your pocket with the gun.

    Pretty common in Reading for shots to be fired these days, they should be used to it. Reading hospital should be top notch at treating gunshot wounds. Plenty of practice.

    Every gun has a safety. It's located between one's ears...or not.
    Honey, sell my guns for what they're worth and not what I told you I paid for them.

    Yeah, I think this problem existed between the trigger and the shoes.
