And that girl got a cut because Project Appleseed puts shooters firing semi-autos on the firing line elbow to elbow. That's "safety conscious"?

There was a banner on their site showing shooters "elbow to elbow" on the firing line. After it was pointed out on this forum that banner was taken down. It seems it was easier to blame the gun than their procedures. They admitted to 10-22's also having OOB's. It just happened to be an OOB with a 15-22 where someone got a minor cut.
