McLennan County, Texas.  (That’s Waco)

First Assistant District Attorney Michael Jarrett said he asked fellow prosecutor Landon Ramsay if he could see Ramsay’s new Glock .40-caliber pistol about 2 p.m. Monday.

Now you know right there that this ain’t going in the right diection.  Guns are not boy toys.

Jarrett says he asked if the gun was loaded and was told it was not.  He claims he pulled back the slide and didn’t see a round in the chamber.  So he aimed the gun out the window …

“I was being extremely safe,” Jarrett said. “I inspected the gun even after I was told it was not loaded, but it was just an unfortunate accident.”

… and shot the building across the street.  Killed the damn thing.  Or at least scared he crap out of it.  It was a vacant building so it was probably suicidal anyway.

The DA says his prosecutors will still be allowed to carry weapons because a disturbed Justice of the Peace in Kaufmann County killed a DA and his wife.

Thanks to Linda for the heads up.
