This Makes Me ANGRY

I'm sorry. I'm not usually like this.

But you have GOT to be kidding me.

A 15-year-old girl is walking home with her mother when a group of ten boys approach them and a disagreement ensues. The boy grabs the girls shirt and the girl attempts to push him away. The mother steps away from the group and fires her legally owned gun into the air.

Guess who got arrested??

THE MOTHER.

Because (according to the police officer): “You can’t fire into the air.”  “Once something goes up, it comes down. There’s the possibility of causing property damage, injuring someone or killing someone. In an apartment complex, the odds of that bullet coming down and striking something are very high.”

Yeah. That's true. A falling bullet can be dangerous.

It may ding somebody's car or something.

Her daughter was being attacked.

What is the purpose of guns again?

Oh yeah. They're for shooting skeet at Camp David.

The officer also said she “should have called police instead of taking matters into her own hands.”

And let her daughter get beat to death while they waited?

This is supposed to be a humorous blog.

Is this a JOKE???
 
P.S.: I looked it up. The likelihood you'll suffer an accidental injury from a firearm discharge in your lifetime is just short of 1 in 6,000.

P.P.S. I also learned that the chance of dying from any unintentional cause in your lifetime are about 1 in 31. So 30 out of 31 people die intentionally? Huh.

P.P.P.S. If you want to learn more about this, the National Safety Council (NSC) has a STORE. Huh!

The things I wish I never learned.
