Finger >off< the trigger while pulling weapon from holster; finger alongside the slide. Practice it chief for a while. It works.

I would quote the 10 rules for firearms safety, but this idiot
is apparently illiterate.

Hope he didn’t shoot off his mouth at the press conference.

The canoneers, have hairy ears,
They do not care for trifles.
They hang their balls, upon the walla,
And shoot at them with rifles.

Maybe you don’t need a powerful weapon to capture a 68-year-old unarmed burglar?
To: SkyDancer
you carry your ar-15 in a Holster? Inside or outside?
To: iowamark
The gunman was disarmed and taken into custody; the deputy was interviewing two people at the scene.
Isn’t this when the safety on the AR-15 should be engaged before slinging it over the shoulder?!?

Short barreled carbine. Very very short. Didn’t read the article fully.

It’s possible that the safety switch snagged on some of his clothing or gear. I’ve seen that happen before. It doesn’t excuse laying his booger hook on the fun switch on the draw, but I have seen safeties get snicked off on webbing, belts, etc. I had a galil style safety on my Arsenal AK and it moved much easier than I liked

Oddly enough, that is the proper, textbook police procedure for such calls in Anamosa, Iowa.
:D
