The most shocking part of the story is that he’s actually been arrested. He must be really hated on the force. Just a few bad apples....
Off-duty NYPD officer arrested after pointing gun at karaoke bar waitress
Amazed that the reporter actually called it a mag and not a clip, but how the hell do the bullets "hit the floor"? Either officer Kim is a complete moron.
Lol... kid is 25 years old... and honestly this is probably more of an indication of 'thug life' culture in NYC permeating everything than it is 'OMG THIN BLUE LINE'
Don't let me rain on your cop hating parade though.
No kidding? Chances are it's a one in a thousand chance, but I learned something new today.If you drop a magazine onto a hard surface, the top round can sometimes pop out. Or the floor plate can fail and the entire magazine and the cartridges, spring, and follower come out. It has happened to me.
Come on now. Can’t you do any better than that? That’s rhetorical of course.
Besides I only hate on the few bad apples. Not the good cops. Can anyone point out where they are at this point?

Glad you mentioned this. Saw it myself with rifle magazines. Rare, but does happen. When little Jill got her first .22 rifle at age 6 last year (Savage MK II FV SR) and we took it to the range, I told her to hold the loaded magazine firmly and insert it into the mag well until it clicked into place, then pull it straight down gently to insure that it was firmly seated.It happens. Some magazine types are more prone to failure than others. Spend some time practicing reloads over a concrete floor and you’ll see your mags get messed up PDQ.

The cop is a dumbass, that’s not up for debate.
what’s more interesting is why a waitress, after noticing someone carrying a gun, would as ‘are you in a gang?’ Seems like a great way to end up dead or worse.
David's two houses up from me. I saw Jimmy at the range yesterday. Shawn's about six houses up, he stopped by the other night when he was walking his dog and my garage door was open while I was reloading. They're all friends of mine, they're all cops.
I get it, you hate cops. That doesn't mean that all cops are a**h***s. That makes you the a**h*** for hating all of them.
I was robbed by a cop after a bike wreck and later threatened by his partner when I called IAD. He's a dick, but he'd be a dick no matter what job he had.
It's Flushing, N.Y. and the cop was Asian. Last I was there, it was a large Asian population. No doubt some gangs there.The cop is a dumbass, that’s not up for debate.

Did the waitress laugh?If you drop a magazine onto a hard surface, the top round can sometimes pop out. Or the floor plate can fail and the entire magazine and the cartridges, spring, and follower come out. It has happened to me.

What's the next town over from there, toilet seat or wax ring?It's Flushing, N.Y. and the cop was Asian. Last I was there, it was a large Asian population. No doubt some gangs there.
