[QUOTE="728ups, post: 1377344, member: 33372"] [SIZE=6][B]Texas Firearms Instructor Tries To Teach His Kids About Gun Safety, Fails When He Shoots His Own Hand[/B][/SIZE] AUTHOR: STEPHEN D FOSTER JR AUGUST 3, 2014 11:45 AM [IMG]http://www.addictinginfo.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/Handgun_collection.jpg[/IMG] A Texas firearms instructor with the Hewitt Police Department will never hear the end of this one. Heath Vanek decided it would be a great idea to teach his children how to clean a 9mm handgun. There was just one problem. You kinda have to take all the bullets out before you do it. During his helpful instruction, Vanek “made the classic mistake” of Second Amendmenting himself in his own left hand. Now the kids know what NOT to do while handling guns. Normally, this would be a typical case of mishandling a firearm by an ordinary gun nut. But that’s not the case here. It’s even more embarrassing because Vanek is the firearms instructor on the police force. An investigation will take place, but not to worry. Hewitt Police Chief Jim Devlin is confident that Vanek will be back on the job. Because someone nearly killing one of their own children by being irresponsible with their guns isn’t a big deal. It’s just another typical day in Texas. “We are human, too,” Devlin told The Waco Tribune. We are not infallible. We make mistakes, and when we mess up, we mess up and do our best to correct it and get back to giving the public the best service we can. I do see a potential for some re-teaching and some remediation. Accidents occur and when you are dealing with a handgun and other weapons, you need to make sure that all your focus is on that. You can’t give it 80 percent. You have to give it 100 percent… It’s an unfortunate accident and it is just something we, as a department, will work through. Vanek has already underwent surgery to repair his wound and will be out of action for two months to recuperate. But hey, at least he didn’t shoot himself in the penis. He can still have more kids to teach what not to do with guns in the future. [/QUOTE]
