Could have a million safety systems, and if something manages to strike the trigger just right, you're screwed.
I'm not sure I agree with you. Maybe we could get someone from Tactical Response to verify.

Slowly lowering my gun to the ground by the grip should not get me shot.
In a firing grip, I disagree. You can Google up videos of guys feigning compliance and then shooting. Holding it like a stinky diaper between thumb and forefinger, maybe not. Holding it like you use it, follow commands.
If you doubt this, run it with Simunitions sometime. Sometimes actually comply, sometimes pretend to. The "surrendering" person will get the first shot. Switch places with with the other participant feigning compliance, and still the "surrendering" person will get the first shot. If I hold a gun to my head and decide to turn it on you, the absolute best you can hope for is a simultaneous shot. There's a significant amount of literature to back that up in studies on use of force issues, from both real life incidents and simulated situations with timers and high speed cameras.
Would I be shot if I dropped a gun and it discharged when it hit the ground?
5...6..7..8. Kick, 2 .3..4,I bet you have better moves than those guys. You do the high leg kicks, don't you?
Maybe you should carry another gun then.
That's Yeager's point, if you're not willng to drop your gun on the ground during training then you will not do so when a dozen of cops show up and tell you to drop your gun NOW.And you will end up shot by the police.
If you don't want any scratch on your "fighting weapon" maybe you should keep it in nice foam box, in your safe.
INGO seems a lot more upset about the incident than the students that were standing on the range, if those student comments are all true.
I don't hear anyone arguing contrary. That really isn't the point.The point isn't that guns are tools and should be beat on. The point is that a fighting gun IS a tool.
...The point isn't that guns are tools and should be beat on...
Remind me not to lend you any of my tools.
Again, taking a snippet and misconstruing what was said. Taken completely out of context.
I have a sense of humor. I just find your lack of sense disturbing
Please remind me again why a large slice of the population thinks that gun owners are a bunch of crazed yahoos...
