old topic but I have to say something. If the gun is cleared (i'm sure it was) it is not a threat. Yes, good sense says we should not point a gun at anyone unless it is with deadly intent- I agree there, but the DA is usually trying to make a dramatic visual statement when they do stuff like this. I have had many training classes over the years with 9mm and M16 rifles (I was active duty for 12 years). We all sat in a room with weapons learning to take them apart and clean them before we went to the firing range to qualify. We did not try to point them at anyone, but with a room full of 20+ students you could not help it sometimes. We had to clear the weapons first thing before handling them and no one ever got shot during a class. It is impossible to shoot someone when there are no bullets in the chamber or in the clip. If he knew it was clear he was not doing anything wrong.   See 3 other replies

Agreed. I don't know much about guns. But as I watched that part I knew that was wrong. And couldn't believe he did that. Unreal and scary as hell.   See 3 other replies

Al Mendoza, District Attorney Investigator, should NOT be allowed to pass his lack of knowledge or he genes to future generations!
He is an IDIOT!   See 3 other replies
