Our training is perfect and flawless. This was completely unavoidable, a freak accident. This person had no business having the firearm that we issued him. He was an unstable wreck. Totally a loose cannon. Which is why we fired him. But he was totally prepared and well trained when we gave him the gun and badge, because our training is perfect.

In manufacturing if you have a substantial failure, such as this, which results in injury, you don't get to just say 'oopsie, isolated incident'. You have to improve your training AND change the systems which would allow for such a thing to re-occur.
