interesting occurance at the ER

[NeoNeanderthal]

it was a benchmade infidel and he said something about the lock being off and having his hand in his pocket. I have no clue how he managed to do it though. Maybe his girlfriend stabbed him and he made up the story. I'm sure the guy feels like a bad ass for self "treating" a self inflicted wound, but he woulda been fine with a towel and then some super glue later.

If I could stomach it, I'd go search TOS for the AAR on this combat medic, heroic story!!!

It seems my concern about otf knives, which a Benchmade Infidel is, is not that far off the mark.

If anyone's careless enough to put one in their pocket with the safety off...OUCH!

Off topic... but I've never understood the love of automatic knives. I mean... when I was a kid I like chinese stars and switchblades... but at some point, you just need a good folder... and to move on to an M4.

Because dude...it's called the Infidel! It's important that a mans knife identifies him as an astute student of culture.

Pussy. The fact he showed up in an ED at all shows his high-flow estrogen.

Interestingly, the other week I was present when a female cranked a round through her holster with a 9mm.

In and out puncture of upper thigh, long laceration of the outer calf, bullet impacted dirt.

By the time I laid her down and started to work down, a well meaning kid had already cut most of her pants off and applied a TQ to her thigh...between the puncture wounds. No arterial bleeding.

It is what it is, she's fine now, No harm, just over application of available items.

HIPAA is vague and shady if your stories do not allow for any way to recognize or identify the patient. Now hospital policy may say otherwise. In any case, do tell....I worked an an urban ED for 10 years and I still love the stories....

My auto opener (without a safety lock), opened inadvertently in my pocket once, I rarely carry it anymore for that reason.
