    Man, she’s got it by the scary end! Usually you want that pointing away from you but she seems to be trying to help him aim right at herself…

      Seriously. I support her message but she was inviting, or even attempting to cause a deadly accident. It looked like videos of suicide by cop I’ve seen.

      Edit to the downvotes: one of the critical rules of guns is whatever is in front of the barrel can be destroyed (rephrased). A gun is always assumed loaded, and a safety is always assumed to be malfunctioning. It doesn’t matter if you like guns or not, or if you assume a soldier is “better than that”. The risk is always there, and she pointed the barrel at herself. Wrestling a gun from someone and pointing the barrel at yourself (and the crowd!) is inviting an accident.
