Just another case where alcohol and guns don't mix. To bad for the family, and others concerned.

AJ, I agree with everything you said except "If you think you'll need a gun at the bar then don't go" I carry every where I can. Not because I think I'll need a gun but because I might need a gun. I don't drink and it's very seldom if I'm going to be in a bar late at night. So I will continue to carry as often as I can.
Now as to what happened. I wear hearing aids and could easily lose one or the battery could go dead.. If that were to happen I might not hear some commands given in a loud, noisy situation. I don't pocket carry. I hope I don't get shot in the back. My last comment is not a judgement on the choice of the officer to use lethal force. Just my own hopes and or fears.
