Today you would have had SWAT there and your buddy would have been led away in handcuffs.
Gone are the days when people were that undetstanding.
About a year or so ago I went to my freight forwarder's warehouse here in Miami and while waiting in the outer office heard a muffled bang. A few minutes later I entered the office and my friend the freight forwarder had a shocked look on his face and I could smell cordite in the air. After inquiring if everything was all right he finally admitted he had just had an AD with his Sig P228, which fired into the carpet, bounced back up and into a sheetrock wall, which fortunately, was the interior of an outer wall for the warehouse. The bullet came to rest somewhere between the sheet rock and the outer concrete wall.
He begged me not to mention it to anybody and he fortunately had a simpathetic ear, since nobody had been harmed.
Today they would be evacuating the building.
