The slippery slope fallacy. Just because you just checked and know that the gun is unloaded doesn’t inextricably lead to danger if you always treat a gun as if it were loaded.
You don’t have to lie to yourself or others that the gun is loaded if it is not, just always treat it as if it is.
The only thing you do by lying is give people reason not to trust you.
I know the fallacy fallacy. It doesn’t apply in this case because you really were making a slippery slope argument with no evidence, and despite my counterarguments. But I don’t have more time to spend on ashitpost lol

It’s no use reasoning with people who would rather be correct than be safe.

There is a fallacy named after this.
If you treat loaded and unloaded guns with the same safety, you don’t have to lie.
