Agreed.
The gun isn't going to fire itself (unlike what most liberals believe), and you shouldn't use anything flexible that invades the trigger area, especially when you're moving about and shifting around.
Think about your local gun store. How are all those handguns displayed in the cases? More than likely, the employees are being covered by multiple muzzles all day long as they move about behind the cases (and if they have cases in places where portions of the store wrap around behind & to the side, customers are being covered too.
Unless the gun barrels are vertical (either direction), they will eventually be pointed at someone at some time.
The four rules really pertain much more to gun handling than anything else. It's kinda' hard to point it, being sure of your target, or have your finger on the trigger, if you're not handling it.
If guns kill so many people, where are mine hiding all the bodies?
