Umm, I think the point is that you must make sure the gun is not pointed at anyone (including yourself) unless you are ALREADY sure that it isn't loaded, and preferably not even then. The fact that he had the thing pointed at his leg while checking it to see if it was loaded is precisely why he's an idiot.

True. Though I wonder why a coroner is discussing gun safety.

Whoopsie, didn't know he was checking it at the time, although it seemed this guy had assumed the gun was unloaded when I breezed through the post :)
Any connection between your reality and mine is purely coincidental.

Yet what he creates tends to be total shit. Example: Ode to Spot.
Purely subjective. Believe it or not, there are people who like that poem.
