I’m just asking, was Data pulling the trigger to shoot Saul Rubinek when they transported him?

Of course. You think a weapon is just going to discharge by accident in Data’s precision grip?

As a transporter chief, I can say with absolute certainty that ~~Data rightly pulled the trigger and killed that son of a bitch murderer~~ the positron flux of the cascade resonator must have caused feedback during the transport cycle and caused the transporter system to falsly read a weapon discharge. It happens with these old Varon disruptors.

Ah, well, I can’t argue with the transporter chief ~~if I don’t want to be pattern buffered~~!

Yes. For the better of life-kind. Dude was a psycho.
