A picture is worth a thousand words.
When I first seen that image I noticed the “prop gun” tag attached to the trigger guard (better seen on the original published photo image).
But still, it’s all about who doesn’t know that’s a prop gun or is it functional, is the ammo live or are blanks being loaded is another unknown. Why, if it is a prop, that it’s on a table with live ammo?
Simple carelessness combined with someone oblivious to others. Tsk-tsk.
And the DOJ is adding thousands of armed agents to the IRS.
Famous words - “I didn’t pull the trigger”.
