twice...Here's a novel idea: F&cking CHECK
74, hmmm. A little long in the tooth to still be instructing. Maybe time to pass the flag to a younger crew?
Age wasn't a factor - he didn't fire the gun because of uncontrollable tremors or miss the paper and hit a student for lack of eye-sight...I was waiting for someone to bring up age. Maybe we should pull the firearms licenses and confiscate the guns of anyone past a certain age? That's all we need.
Simple: You NEVER put your finger on the trigger untill you have a target and are ready to fire. Firearms 101.
The teacher told investigators he thought the gun was loaded with plastic bullets.
Also, it was a S&W .38 revolver - he didn't even need to have snap caps in it.

Is it wrong that I laugh so hard every time I see that video?
Seriously, thank goodness he didn't shoot someone else!
Actually, that was not the primary issue in this case. You do dry fire in the classroom in an NRA Basic Pistol class. Yes, he should not have been pointing it where he was pointing it. But more importantly, he had a live round in the gun rather than the snap-cap that he thought he had.
There is a reason that the NRA prohibits live rounds in the classroom during an NRA Basic Pistol class.
No. But if an instructor is incompetent, as this one obviously is, his teaching credentials should be revoked. Bringing live ammo into a classroom, having no muzzle control, not aware of the backdrop...That is at least 3. Just becaue some guy is a good ole boy, and has been teaching all his life, is no reason to allow him to continue teach if he is losing it. This is the last flippin thing we need to happen at this time.
Or, it would seem, shoot you in the face by "accident"Learn to be a little more critical reader whippersnapper or us old farts might might smack ya one on the side of the head with our canes or run ya over in our Oldsmobiles or Buicks if we can see where we are going, anyway
