That wasn't a joke any more than the rest of the firearm accidents here are jokes. Some come along with the face palm of stupidity, others with the angst of gross malfeasance.

And that's fine, but I do want you to note that I never post one that is more than a week old and usually only a couple days. America provides me with a very generous supply of this stuff.

I have no doubt - but I haven't once seen you stray from only the US. The rest of the world never has any incidents, if you judge by your posting. I'm just bringing awareness to the reality that there are still places out there that are worse. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Its unfortunate that a few have the ability to try to ruin things for the rest of the population. Damn right. And all because a few serial killers are, well never mind.
