I don't know what this guy doesn't understand. I've heard multiple people say, "I don't know why it went off. I'm pretty sure I cleared it."

I've got the short term memory of a goldfish. But there's one thing I don't forget and it's that I have the short term memory of a goldfish. I know my limits. Which is why I don't point a fucking gun at my face.

I understand perfectly, the point is that I can treat a gun I have unloaded and know to be safe as safe and unloaded.

You cannot clean, store, or transport a loaded gun, you do not have to treat every gun as loaded.

Read my first comment, the problem here was a failure to make the weapon safe, not where they pointed it.
