I'd have to agree with Larry.

The shotgun looks like an auto-loader. If there was a shell left after his last shot, the gun is poised to shoot again.

But even if Kerry had emptied the gun, his finger should be no where near the trigger.

I'm sure many people get tired of following all kinds of safety protocols. Last year a guy at a wrecking yard was killed when an engine hoist collapsed dropping a 500lb V8 on him. Normally two people move the hoist. He thought he'd do it himself that day.

No doubt some of us have had the experience of turning white as a sheet after some close call - realizing what could have happened if safety rules were not followed or... if we weren't damn lucky.
