      That is a most un-American thing to say.

      As a gun owner, I approve.

      whoa there…Americans not in death squads shoot each other or themselves accidently over 44,000 times a year.

      The right to be idiots is in the constitatuition.

    Sometimes, you need a bad guy with a gun to stop a bad guy with a gun.

    Call me when it’s in the head. Although I doubt that would be lethal for an ICE agent.

    When will ice agents extrajudicially execute themselves over it? They’re attacking law enforcement.

    All three firearm discharges occurred during quarterly training sessions while agents were holstering their weapons, a routine but potentially high-risk moment in firearms handling.

    Author throwing some shade there.
