This is grounds for beating the shit out of your instructor. As long as you’re smiling while you do it, you aren’t creating a hostile work environment per judge Barret.

All of his fellow students should have walked off the range at that point rather than just stand there silently.

We need to find a line of work where we can keep people who are not socially developed. Rather than giving them huge amounts of authority in law enforcement.

I hear there’s a spot at the White House for people like that.

Maybe you misunderestimate what kind of people the DEA recruits?

I, for one, am not surprised to see this coming from the most soulless and corrupt federal law enforcement agency.
(Before TSA, I also considered DEA the most useless)

There is no point de-bugging this behavior from the DEA. It’s a feature, not a bug.

Well, it sounds like this kept happening repeatedly on a firing range

I can think of a better solution than beating the guy “oops! Accidental discharge! I swear I wasn’t aiming at the Nazi”.
