10. "RE: GotW 46: Phaser Mk IV"
In response to message #2
 
   And the Klingons took this and ran it up to 11. They apparently WANTED their designs to be as dangerous to the victim as the user. Hell, it's a miracle they survived the first decade of their atomic age.

Even the closest to a "safe" weapon design is the Romulan disruptors and Bajoran phasers of the 24th century. And those trigger guards are not only designed along the entire grip length, but are almost far enough from the said grip for an elephant to fire.

The safety culture died a short, early, painful death in the Alpha and Beta quadrants.
