[EDIT]

 

Well I stand corrected then.  Unlike other bullshit, this one is supported by facts.  I'm not above admitting when I get something wrong.

 

My initial skepticism was due to how fake the muzzle flash looks, typically you don't see it on camera, especially that bright, and the man doesn't respond the way you would expect someone to respond who just had an negligent discharge.

(Reuters) - An off-duty FBI agent dancing wildly at a downtown Denver bar accidentally shot a man in the leg when the agent tried to pick up a gun that fell from its holster as he performed a handstand, Denver police said.

A bystander recorded video of the incident involving the unnamed agent, which authorities said took place early on Saturday at the Mile High Spirits and Distillery night spot, and the footage was shared widely online on Sunday.

In a statement, the Denver Police Department said the agent “was dancing at a night club when his firearm became dislodged from its waistband holster and fell onto the floor. When the agent retrieved his handgun an unintended discharge occurred.”

Another bar patron was hit by a bullet in a lower leg, sustaining a non-life-threatening injury, said the statement by a department spokeswoman, Marika Putnam.

The agent was taken to police headquarters, Putnam said, and later released to an Federal Bureau of Investigation supervisor. The Denver District Attorney’s office will decide whether to press any charges against the agent.

Denver district attorney spokesman Ken Lane said by email on Sunday morning that the DA’s office had no comment as the incident remains under investigation by the Denver Police.

Denver FBI spokeswoman Amy Sanders also said that Denver Police are leading the investigation and that it was a ‘personnel matter for the FBI.” She did not say how the FBI has or will discipline the agent.

[I withdrew my claim]

 

And I didn't say "fake news" dip shit.  Until you quoted the story and I confirmed it, I did not know this was in the news as it looked like a quick after effects job on some blurry/shaky cell footage.

I never said you said "Fake news" dumbfuck. Gotcha!

 

These days it wouldnt be stunning if it came out tomorrow and it was all a complete hoax with the victim just acting.

 

The first thing that stood out to me was that the muzzle flash looked just like fake ones done on videos.

I never claimed you said I said it was "fake news" shit-head.  Gotcha back!

 

The question is, why would you write "Fake news" countless times if not to mockingly infer that I was making that claim?  Yea, there is no reason beyond you're a hate filled little faggot venting his Trump rage.  It's OK.  I forgive you.

 

On another note, I just want to point out that this completely and utterly destroys the ridiculous claim made by daftcunt that training should be required as to prevent people from doing stupid shit while carrying a firearms.  Here we by all accounts a man who underwent and passed every level of firearm training mandated by the FBI and yet where was all that training on this night?  Yea, like I said, training doesn't garuntee shit and the ONLY real reason to mandate it is to use it as a means to hinder as many people as possible from carrying a firearm for defense.

LOL, the only time you do insist on facts is when the news does not fit your bias.

I insist on facts for any claim, which is why I don't buy the Jew hating shit that gets posted here.  And bias?  Bitch please.  I spelled out why I was skeptical right there in my post.  If I am "bias" then it's a "bias" against shaky-cam video with fake looking muzzle flashes that don't seem to match up with the audience reaction.

It's good to be skeptical and all of that, but that's not what you were doing here.  You *always* defend people with guns using them in whatever way they happen to use them.  Sometimes you'll muddy up the issue by stating what you would have done in that situation or your time as an officer of the law, but you always have some defense for someone shooting a gun.  I guess I commend you on seeing reality as it actually is in this particular situation; that was very big of you to do.

so is it real or not?  the dancing itself looks like something from a video game or fortnightt so I have no reason to believe this is real until a real source is linked by non-MSM. That is embarassing to say the least...

LOLOLOL Perfect example of Trumptard Nation. If it doesn't fit their narrative, it' s fake news and they need more proof-if it does, it's a circle jerk of unsubstantiated claims.

The bar patron who was shot has been offered free drinks for life. Seems equitable.
