      That his gun fired after he slipped. It indicates that he didn’t respect the firearm enough to holster it appropriately. If you’re going to carry a gun, and not treat it with the respect it deserves, and to respect those around you by doing so – you’re trash.

        Some people don’t live in great neighborhoods. ¯\(°_o)/¯ It could’ve been one of those things where he’s taking out the trash and then hopping in the car going about his day.
