Let's all remember the real criminal, however. According to the DEA, whoever videoed the agent firing a pistol in a classroom full of children is an enemy of the state.

Newsbrief: DEA Agent Demonstrates Gun Safety to School Kids -- By Shooting Himself 5/7/04

Now, here's a lesson on gun safety that will not quickly be forgotten. According to Orlando, Florida, television station WKMG, an Orlando-based DEA agent shot himself in the leg during a gun safety presentation to local kids.

The agent, whom superiors mercifully refused to name, was treated at the Orlando Hospital Center after the April 9 incident and is now back on the job. According to police reports, the agent drew his .40-caliber pistol and removed the magazine, then pulled back the slide and asked someone from the audience to look inside the gun and confirm it wasn't loaded. The pistol was pointed at the floor, and when he released the slide, one bullet fired into the top of his left thigh.

The DEA agent's presentation was at an event sponsored by the Orlando Minority Youth Golf Association (http://www.omyga.org).

There was no explanation as to the link between teen golf and gun safety.

But the agent's presentation had an impact, according to witnesses. "The kids screamed and started to cry," said Vivian Farmer, who attended the presentation with her 13-year-old nephew. "Everyone was pretty shaken up," Farmer told WKMG.

"But the point of gun safety hit home, alright, that DEA needs to go back to school and gun safety.

The DEA agent's presentation had an impact allright, according to witnesses. "The kids screamed and started to cry," said Vivian Farmer, who attended the presentation with her 13-year-old nephew. "Everyone was pretty shaken up,"

WATCH THE FULL VIDEO and ask yourself what the hell is a DEA agent bringing a loaded gun or guns in a fourth grade class and school where children are and then shoots himself with stupidity. There is no excuse, any of these law enforcement people could give and as a parent, I personally would be really pissed off if my child was in that class, and I would have made sure he was no longer working as a DEA agent.

One of those children could have been killed because of careless stupidity on this DEA's part.

An undercover DEA Agent has now suspended for a week without pay, after video surfaced on the internet showing him shoot himself in the foot while giving a gun safety lecture to a group of Orlando fourth graders.  During the lesson, the agent goes through a safety routine and even asks another agent to verify that the gun is not loaded. The agent, holding a Glock 40 handgun, referred to how rappers who tend to boast about this type of gun, and even hold it incorrectly. With the gun pointed downward, the firearm misfired and the agent shot himself in the right foot. Despite the shock and injury, the agent continued his lesson warning kids about the danger of accidental shootings, like the one they had just witnessed.

Sources close to the investigation suspect the video was leaked from someone inside the DEA.

Investigation Launched Into Who Leaked Internet Video

ORLANDO, Fla. -- An agent with the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency was been suspended after video surfaced showing the man shooting himself during a gun safety class in front of a group of Orlando fourth-graders, according to Local 6 News.

An investigation has been launched to determine who leaked the home video of the undercover DEA agent shooting himself at an event sponsored by the Orlando Minority Youth Golf Association. Before the shooting, the agent was videotaped talking about how certain weapons are popular with rap artists. "This is a Glock 40," the agent said on the tape. "Fifty Cent, Too Short, all of them talk about a Glock 40, OK?," he said. "I'm the only one in this room professional enough that I know of to carry this Glock 40."

Seconds later, the agent shot himself in the foot. "See how that accident happened, that could happen to you and you could be blown away," the agent said after the shooting. Experts in the field said that the undercover agent should never have been videotaped because it could put the agent's life at risk, Local 6 News reported. "It puts a lot of undercover agents in jeopardy if their faces are videotaped," the masked agent told Local 6 News. "His identity is burned. His identity is known as a police officer and its a potential personal safety hazard to himself as well as his family members."

The video of the shooting is posted on several Web sites on the Internet. The video shows the shooting and the agent's face. Local 6 News did not show the entire video of the shooting because the undercover officer could be identified in some of the shots.

Glock should come out with a model "Fotey" to commemorate him. Maybe engrave the guys head into the side and have it say "For Profeshnul Use Only".

Did the gun "misfire" or did it fire normally after the idiot stroked the trigger?

Suuuuuuurrreee.....


Sure seems like a lot of LEO's have defective firearms.

Just like a lot of guys who reload have very weak, defective fireams.

Strange coincidence.

Wow, that was the first time I've seen that.  Friggen hilarious.  I also think it's kind of funny that some in the audience were telling him to put down the rifle, he tries to reassure them it's unloaded, and then they even more impassiontely tell him to put it down. Haha.

I do however, give him credit for continuing the demonstration.  If I was him I'd get the hell out of there for embarassment reasons alone.

Funnier every time I see it.

It looks like when he holds the gun up that the slide is locked back.  Anybody know if it still had a mag in it or if the chambered round didn't get pulled out by the extractor?

I've never understood how this happened.  We don't get to see him "clearing" his weapon, but it looks like the slide is locked back when he holds it up inthe air and talks about being professional enough.  If he did talk out the mag, then its kind of a qeird screwup.

I guess its possible that the extractor didn't extract, but one would think that he would have noticed that the cartridge wasn't ejected.  

Maybe he put the magazine back in. The video is grainy but when i stopped it at the 26 second it sort of looks like the mag is back in.

I wouldn't assume this guy is smart enough to notice a round stuck in the chamber, or realize that a round did not eject when he pulled the slide back.  Just that rounds not getting ejected aren't that common.  Most ADs though result from compounding problems, so perhaps his stupidity of pulling the trigger while the gun was pointed at his leg was compounded by the gun failing to eject the chambered round.

+1 And the idiot continued to dig his own hole.

Either a round didn't extract (which means both people failed to properly inspect the weapon) or he put the magazine back in (which means he is possibly the dumbest person on the planet).

I think I'd rather be around Too $hort when he is playing with his Glock. Amazing how these fucking retards get Federal jobs.

Probably put the mag back in, so when he dropped the slide he loaded a round
