He could produce a Western movie and call it “Rust.”
I was thinking the other day how much I used to hate Bill Clinton. He was freaking George Washington compared to what they are now.

He was at least 35 years too old to be that carelessly stupid.
Lotta people carrying today. Lotta tension, people wound tight. He could have just as easily ended up shot himself if he had had kept pranking people with a "toy".

Maybe he set it up to look like a prank gone wrong. If not, amazingly stupid.

This should be called "Profiles In Stupidity". Perhaps he can use the Alec Baldwin defense excuse and say he never actually pulled the trigger.

One thing that stuck out to me was "he place the BB gun on the shelve with other guns". Why was a real loaded gun just sitting on the shelve to start with? All gun store I know of always double check to make sure nothing is loaded. They may have a loaded gun but it is in a holster on their hip not just out for anyone to pick up. Something does not seem right.

Pullit- agreed - and who the F pulls the trigger on anything pointed at a friends face?
I don't know about y'all but I never equated the word "toy" with a BB gun and consider a firearm is a firearm.
Point that BB gun at a cop and see if he laughs at your prank...... or your toy.

My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.

All gun store I know of always double check to make sure nothing is loaded. They may have a loaded gun but it is in a holster on their hip not just out for anyone to pick up. Something does not seem right. This was my first thought too. I'm one who usually gives the benefit of the doubt to people and not jump on the, usually, outlandish alternate theory. For me, this sounds like the shooter wanted to kill the other guy and this was his way of "getting away with it". "Check the tower logs for Christ's sake!"
