Tales of the 2nd Amendment

[47of74]

I thought I'd start this thread as a catch all place for the various gun related stupidity that takes place (outside Florida of course).

To start, here's an idiot down in La Porte, Texas

Quote

La Porte police say a woman is charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon after two separate road rage incidents.

A photo of one of the incidents shows the woman pointing what looks like a gun.

Investigators say this was the second report of a road rage incident of the same description in the same area. The previous incident happened in July.

Investigators were able to canvass the area and locate the suspect and her truck two days later parked in a nearby industrial area. The suspect was identified as 25-year-old Amanda Downs of Baytown.

I'm thinking of getting a dash cam because of this person.

Here's one out of Florida.

 

 

 

Sheriff's deputies conducting a child porn raid on a Florida home on Wednesday found an arsenal of guns and explosives and a homemade silencer, along with a note promising "bloody revenge."

 

Investigators found the weapons — including an AK-47 assault rifle, a 50-caliber pistol, a baseball bat with nails jutting out and 2,300 rounds of ammunition — in a locked closet in the Dunedin, Florida, home where 24-year-old Randall Drake lived with his parents, said Pinellas County Sheriff Bob Gualtieri.

Kokomo man’s warning after having 16 guns stolen: ‘Don’t let strippers in your house’

Quote

Howard County gun owner Billy Swaggerty said he learned a bitter lesson after his back door was kicked in last spring and more than a dozen firearms, some of them assault-style rifles, and the safes they were kept in were stolen.

“Be careful who you tell, keep it to yourself, don’t be bragging about how many guns you got, be careful who you let into your house and make sure you buy a quality safe,” he said. “And that’s another thing…don’t let strippers in your house.”

Swaggerty said last winter a woman he knew in passing showed up at his front door on Kokomo’s north side, shivering without a coat, and asking if he still had a spare bedroom.

Over his wife’s objections, Swaggerty let the woman move in.

Two observations:

1)  I hope there's many, many years of I fucking told you so from his wife to this guy. 

2)

Over water on a fucking car

Quote

A 68-year-old man fatally shot one of his neighbors and critically wounded two others after complaining that they sprayed water on his vehicle, police said.

Danny Howard Silvers faces a murder charge in the killing of Jeri Lee Edwards, 60, in Cedar Hill on Monday night. The two other victims remained hospitalized Tuesday, according to a police news release.

Silvers and his neighbors, according to officers, had gotten into an argument after the neighbors sprayed water on Silvers’ vehicle. The officers gave advice to Silvers and his neighbors about how to prevent the issue from happening again and then left the scene, the news release said.

Silvers had called police before to complain about property and “quality of life related issues,” the police news release said.

McDonald's also had some weapons related stupidity at one of its places yesterday; 

Quote

An angry drive-thru customer pulled a handgun on a McDonald’s employee after being told that the Ohio restaurant was not selling McMuffin sandwiches, according to police.

Investigators say that a Ford Taurus with “two unknown black male occupants” pulled up yesterday at around 4 AM to the drive-thru window at a McDonald’s in Warren, a city outside Youngstown.

“The males were not happy that McMuffins were not being sold at the time,” a Warren Police Department report notes.

The driver, wearing a black skull cap and black hoodie, then “brandished a black firearm,” cops say. The man stated “What, Bitch?” and “Fuck You, bitch,” to the 33-year-old female McDonald’s employee.

When I worked at McDonalds another Manager was working an overnight and she had limited staff so went down to the limited menu. One person did not like that and THREW A BRICK through the window. People get really crazy about their fast food.

Arizona Man accidentally second amendmented himself in his nether regions

Quote

A man was taken to hospital in Arizona this week after shooting himself in the groin area inside a Walmart in Buckeye, Maricopa County.

The local police department tweeted on Tuesday officers were working what appeared to be a “self-inflicted accidental shooting” inside the Watson and Yuma Walmart.

The Arizona Republic newspaper reported the incident occurred at around 6:30 p.m. after a semiautomatic handgun that was being held in the man’s waistband began to slip. The gun, which was not in a holster, discharged as he attempted to reposition it, the man told cops.

The Arizona Republic reported when police officers responded to the gun shot the man was found in the meat section of the Walmart store with “survivable injuries.” Officers said they filed a report for the unlawful discharge of a firearm but it was believed to be accidental.

Ooopsie.

I wonder if he's related to this guy?

Someone 2nd Amendmented himself in his Johnson

Quote

 A man in Indiana accidentally shot himself in the genitals early Thursday morning when a gun slipped from his waistband, police said. 

While in the emergency room of Marion General Hospital, Mark Anthony Jones, 46, told police he was walking about 6:44 a.m. on a riverside trail when the gun began to slip from his waistband. He reached to adjust the firearm and it discharged.

"The bullet entered just above his penis and exited his scrotum," said a Marion Police Department spokesperson.

Hopefully his reproducing days have come to an end.

Two idiots in Arkansas after a night of drinking took turns wearing bulletproof vests and shooting each other.

Quote

As detailed in a probable cause affidavit, Charles Ferris, 50, and Christopher Hicks, 36, were drinking Sunday night on the back deck of Ferris’s residence when they came up the bright idea to shoot themselves.

Ferris, who was wearing a bulletproof vest, told Hicks to shoot him, according to the affidavit. Hicks obliged, firing a single round from a .22 caliber rifle into Ferris’s chest. While the vest stopped the bullet, Ferris was left with a painful welt on his chest.

Hicks then donned the vest.

Ferris, who would later tell cops that he was “pissed” about being shot, confessed that he “unloaded the clip” into Hicks’s back. None of the five rounds penetrated the protective vest, investigators noted, but Hicks “was bruised from them hitting him.”

Good thing they mentioned Arkansas right away or I might have assumed this was Florida.

An Indiana man who (what you thought this was Florida Man) shot himself in his personal meat department can't stay out of trouble with the fuzz, it seems.

Quote

In the four months since Mark Anthony Jones shot himself in the genitals, the 47-year-old Indiana man has been arrested four separate times and is now behind bars awaiting trial on narcotics, weapons, and domestic battery counts.

In late-February, Jones suffered an “accidental self-inflicted gunshot injury” while walking on a street in Marion, a city in Grant County. Jones told police that he was carrying an unholstered Hi-Point 9mm handgun in his waistband when the weapon “began to slip.” When he “reached down to adjust” the firearm, Jones told police, the weapon discharged.

Jones, seen in the above mug shot, was subsequently arrested for carrying an unlicensed handgun, a misdemeanor.

Since shooting himself, Jones has also been arrested twice for driving with a suspended license, domestic battery, possession of methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia, and methamphetamine dealing. This mix of misdemeanor and felony charges has resulted in Jones being locked up in the county jail in lieu of $30,000 bond.

Responsible gun owner here.

What is on the other side of the fence? Bullets will go right through! One of the primary rules of gun safety is "know what is behind your target"! These people are total idiots.

Yeah if that was my sister or brother’s neighbor I’d be telling them to call the fucking sheriff and if said sheriff started spouting 2A stuff I’d call him myself and give him or her an absolute fucking earful. Especially if it was my brother since he had my niece. 

By the way Apple. I did mean FUCKING. Not DUCKING.

Yeah a guy brought his strap ons into a Wally World since said Wally World announced their new policies.  Found out the hard way there are consequences

Me too... I was wondering if he was wearing it or did he just put it in the shopping cart.

Wouldn’t it be funny if Walmart sold strap-ons?

(And just as I wrote that, I got an email from Walmart.)

Who the fucking fuck needs a semi-automatic rifle? 

Firing one into a wooden fence sounds like a recipe for disaster.

[Briefly]

It looks like there was very nearly another school shooting, in Oklahoma:

I am going to say it again:  Nobody needs that kind of weaponry!

And I'm glad that the co-worker alerted authorities.

Another idiot put himself in the hospital after firing his strap on into the ceiling of his apartment. 
 

Quote

Police responded to a call for a shooting at an apartment near 40th Street and Baseline Road shortly before midnight Sunday. 

According to Phoenix police, a man was "upset with the neighbors above his apartment." 

After banging on their apartment door, the man returned to his own apartment and allegedly retrieved a handgun. 

Police say he then fired multiple shots into the ceiling with the final shot striking him in the face.

Somebody’s strap on fell off and caused a foot injury.

A man literally shot himself in the foot at a North Carolina Walmart.

The man was getting out of his car in a Walmart parking lot in Leland on Saturday morning when police say his gun fell out of his pocket, the Wilmington StarNews reported.

The gun then hit the ground and fired a bullet into the man’s foot, WWAY reported.

Officers were called to the Walmart and found the man with a gunshot wound in his foot, according to WECT, and he was taken to New Hanover Regional Medical Center to be treated for his injuries.

Folks if you’re gonna carry a metal penis extension y’all need to secure it properly. Pants pockets don’t count.
