CCW holder shoots himself in the butt:
Texas man accidentally fires gun in Walmart, police say
Published July 24, 2012 | FoxNews.com

A Texas man injured two people and himself after he accidentally fired his handgun Monday night while standing on line at a Walmart store, police said.

MyFoxDFW.com reported that the suspect, who was not identified, accidentally fired his gun while he reached into his wallet at the Dallas-area store. The bullet hit the man in the buttock and shattered on the ground. Fragments hit a child in the leg and a woman in the foot, the report said.

The suspect, who has a concealed handgun license, apparently panicked and took off running, but was soon caught by police.

He faces evasion charges and injury to a child.

He "misfired" it then ran. What a moron.

No. Leftists don't shoot themselves for the cause, they shoot other people.

Actually, I have no problem thinking this guy could be a leftist. Leftist usually think they are so perfect that they cant do anything wrong, and they hardly ever think things through before doing stupid stuff. And they think they're too smart to need any training or instruction. I've seen leftists done so many stupid things that I have no problem seeing one do something like this.

But if it is, it would only be a leftist going through his/hers daily life. I agree with previous posters that if it's for an agenda they always do it to someone else.

Cheap holster that didn't fully protect the trigger perhaps?

Definitely a dumbass for trying to run from his mistake.
