Muzzling guns
, December 29, 2012
Members of the Philippine National Police (PNP) display their service pistols that have been sealed with tape during a ceremonial sealing of the muzzles of firearms at the National Capital Region Police Office in Taguig city, south of Manila, on December 29. The taping of the muzzle is a tradition to ensure that no police officers will accidentally fire their guns during New Year celebrations, thereby preventing deaths and injuries. Reuters/Romeo Ranoco
