"...Unnecessary gun-handling needs to be eliminated. Guns, no matter their supposed “condition,” are far less likely to be involved in an unintentional discharge when they are simply left in their holsters and not touched, than when they are incessantly handled, particularly when such “handing” serves no logical function. Constantly loading, “clearing,” and reloading of guns during the course of the day is seldom necessary for any legitimate purpose. And, there is rarely a “safe direction” handy in which to point a gun during such unneeded handling..."

So true and so hard to get people to understand. Just leave the damn thing loaded and holstered unless you're training or being attacked.
