He didn't actually draw and fire, but he admitted that it was definitely on his mind. That alone provides evidence that the potential for mayhem - despite the best of intentions - exists.
Up until the time that the first person gets their arm yanked off in a combine, is the risk any less real? Should we then allow combines to be operated without guards in place - simply because 'it hasn't happened yet'?
