    Since we now care about drug users owning guns, we could enforce this policy :

    I guess "Get off the fence line, which has become overgrown and needs to be cut back. And look out for the poison ivy" was too long to yell since the old man was not in imminent danger, as he himself noted.

    Shot in front of his kid (8) and mother. And then pointed the gun at the 8-year-old.

    I don't see a problem there. The guy was arguing with him, so he stood his ground. #Florida

    Saw some report on the flow of 'Merican guns down south and it said that it was extremely difficult for Mexican citizens to buy guns in Mexico. Like there's only 1 gun store and it's on a military base. So while we gripe about the flow of drugs, keep in mind what our killing toys are doing to Mexican citizens every day.

    We need to ban more books:

    https://www.yahoo.com/news/11-old-shoots-two-13-162310583.html

    The fight continued into the parking lot of the facility when the 11-year-old went into his mom’s car, the police chief said in the news conference.

    He grabbed a gun out of an unlocked box and fired one shot at the two teens, McKinley told WFLA.

    The shot hit one teen in the arm and the other in the torso as the two were running away from the 11-year-old, McKinley told the Associated Press.

    They are both expected to recover, outlets reported.

    The 11-year-old was arrested and charged with attempted second-degree murder, the police chief said in the news conference.

    Charges are expected for the child’s mother, who owned the gun legally, but did not properly lock the case, McKinley told WFLA.

    Physically, yes.

    It is pretty depressed at the failure of its system for blackjack, though...

    That he's not not dead. That he will survive. IIRC, Christian Eriksen did the same as he was being wheeled down the tunnel after his on-field heart attack.

    Of course. But I'd imagine not being shot four times would be somewhat more preferable. Maybe a "Meh Hand Wave" would have been better?

    I'm reminded of the people who thank God that they survive when a tornado hits their trailer. Like, who do they think sent the tornado in the first place?

    I mean, they probably have read the Book of Job at some point - I say probably because it's Old Testament and it's long, so no guarantees.

    The guy got shot 4 times by a guy who was mad. And you're concerned about his hand gesture when clearly doped up? Talk about petty.

    While I agree with you on this part (thanking God), it is not the same.
