    Coming from a multigenerational family of LE and Military I can tell you first hand that NDs are never common. Not even slightly.

      Depends who you talk to. I know a guy in construction who has had to patch bullet holes in several LEO houses. Also at the sport men’s club I’m a member of, the only shooting injury we’ve had was from a state trooper during a training excercise. You’re point is valid, though. NDs are supposed to be minimalized through training and adherence to the 4 gun rules. These guys are morons.

          1. Keep your finger off the boom trigger until your ready to fire.
          2. know your target and what’s behind it.
          3. assume the gun is always loaded, even when you know it isn’t.
          4. never point it at something you aren’t willing to completely and utterly destroy.
