You don’t accidentally: load a gun pick the gun up disengage the safety point the gun at a person put the finger on the trigger The trigger can be very sensitive and you can accidentally shoot a gun. After all other safety precautions have been purposefully violated The justice system in the US is quite unjust.

Designed specifically to prevent accidental discharge. He didn’t drop the gun or something. He had to put his finger on the trigger.
