You seem to have an apologetica ready for any sort of gun nonsense.
And you hype up the .01%
A stranger being injured in a gun accident is way down in the noise of
any statistic, even gun deaths.
They are all far behind DUI car accidents.
Is it unreasonable to ask how he got to the movie?

Why? You wander around the house drunk all the time along with your louse of a Son, while your long-suffering Wife digs out the driveway.

You seem to spend a lot of time searching for gun nonsense. Why? Are you trying to
show what a 'sensiible' person you are?

Gun nonsense? Well, that says a lot about you.

Renton police say the suspect, who appeared intoxicated, went to the
showing of "13 Hours." Police say the man walked inside the theater with
a gun and "accidentally" discharged his weapon, hitting a woman in the
theater.

The woman has been upgraded from critical to serious condition. The man
took off, but his dad did the right thing:

Police believe the suspect initially left the scene on Thursday evening
right after the shooting, but the man's father called 911 a short time
later to turn him in. The 29-year-old surrendered to police at his
family's home in Newcastle.

The suspect told detectives the shooting was an accident that took place
when he dropped his gun inside the theater. The man reportedly said the
gun discharged when it fell to the ground. He also said he'd been
drinking before the shooting took place.

That's one of the reasons Massachusetts does "drop tests" on handguns
as part of the compliance inspection process.

Is that any worse than making it sound more pervasive than it is?

People like you try to present the aberrations as the normal thing. It
is the same scare tactic the left uses for a lot of their pet causes.
You distract from far more important problems, but maybe that is the
intent.

You don't need a live round to drop test a gun. A blank or just an
empty primed case will work just fine. (the latter being the easiest
and cheapest).
I also doubt this is a machine. I imagine there is a protocol they
follow (height, surface, angle etc). They just have some government
apparatchik sitting on a stool dropping guns all day.

Just a clarification ... virtually *all* handguns since the 1940's have
some sort of transfer block or other mechanism that prevents the hammer
from striking the firing pin unless the trigger is pulled. The drop
test required in Massachusetts is intended to ensure the mechanism works
as advertised.
