Fun With Guns: Chick Edition
If there is anywhere you need a gun, it at an Ohio Chick-fil-A.
An Ohio man accidentally shot himself in a Chick-fil-A while pulling up his pants in the bathroom Tuesday afternoon, police said.
The 45-year-old man was licensed to carry the concealed Glock pistol that fired one shot, grazing his leg, but the weapon did not have a safety, the Journal-News reported.
I can only hope he had his pants down for regular bathrooming purposes, but he left the place without telling anyone he was shot so I have my suspicion. I’ve always figured that the bathrooms at Chick-fil-A were dens of iniquity.
No safety? The weapon did not have a safety or did he not activate it? Inquiring minds want to know and no, I’m never going anywhere near a Chic-fil-A. I have enough damn surprises in my life.
1According to this website
http://blog.cheaperthandirt.com/faqs/glock-faq/
“The Glock pistol was designed without an external safety to make drawing and firing the pistol quicker and easier. It does have 3 internal safeties that prevent the gun from firing accidentally. In short, the Glock pistol simply will not fire unless the trigger is fully depressed.”
Operant sentence being “the Glock pistol simply will not fire unless the trigger is fully depressed.”
2Sounds like that man’s Glock needs some Prozac(r)… oh, wrong kind of depressed.
My guess would be that the pistol started sliding to the floor (or to take a quick bath), and he grabbed it.
You know, these folks carrying around firearms with rounds in the chamber really need to get a grip. It’s just not that dangerous out there – except for all the careless idiots who are as careless with their gun handling as they are with their driving.
3He shot himself in the Chick-fil-A while pulling up his pants? Where on the body is the Chick-fil-A located?
4Hahahahahahahaha! Hahahahahahahaha! Hahahahahahahaha!
I almost wet my Chick-fil-A laughing at LynnN’s comment.

On a wingnut, about where you’d think it is: where they stick their heads up.
Ditto what Debbo says.
6He’s facing a long hard life. From now on he’ll have to use the “wide stance”, and you know what that implies!
7I’ve never had Chick-fil-A, mainly because I heard about them and what World Class Idiots they were before there was a Chick-fil-A near me…
I’m sure they will find plenty of gun toting homophobes with good ol Right Wing Christian Family Values to sustain themselves without my business…
I’m not familiar with the teachings of the Republican Jesus…
8I’ve never been to a Chick-fil-A either and don’t plan on it! Asking where that is located on anyone is similar to asking where chicken nuggets are located on a chicken!! It’s a poser for sure!
9When that gun went off, do you suppose anyone within hearing distance might have wondered if that was an extremely loud fart!?! Perhaps Chick-fil-A builds up extreme gas pressure!! Do you suppose?
Redwood, about that Republican Jesus. I’ve been trying to figure that out myself. It seems that RWNJ’s are super glued to the diety of the Old Testament, you know, that vengeance is mine one, full of wrathful power way more than anything else. From what I can tell, the New Testament Jesus impresses them as a total deviation, in sum, a wimp so wimpy that he let himself be grabbed and manhandled by soldiers and then wouldn’t even say boo in his defense. If he had, the RWNJ’s are betting that he could have been set free rather than die as he did, even if that was necessary for the resurrection and redemption part of the plan. They must have thought the robust eviction of the money changers from the temple grounds was an odd moment considering the fact that there were no more such scenes even when necessary (int he RWNJ’s view) regarding obvious sinners. Instead, there was the “wimpy” do not cast the first stone thing. It just doesn’t play with these people.

I often find myself in a Bible Discussion with them and some of my favorite verses for discussion are:
Genesis 19:30-38
Genesis 38
Judges 21:10-24
Deuteronomy 22:28-29
Exodus 21:7-11
Exodus 22:20
Deuteronomy 17:2-7
Deuteronomy 22:20-21
Isaiah 13:15-18
Incest, Rape, Murder, & Intolerance are all great subjects especially when they start talking about Islam and the Quran….
Same Angry God…. Different Prophet…
11The ammo-sexual got a round off in a “Lil” church of Gayphobia. He should’ve been a gymnast
12Let’s consider changing the last line to “Den of inquiry?”.
13Marcia in CO raises an interesting question about the Glock Fart Theory. It might be worth taking an exit poll (stay outside the exit if you value your life) to verify. The combination of Chic Fil A intestinal pressure, Repug hot air and the inevitable unlock and unload could indeed result in a fart so loud that it is comparable to the retort of the pistol. Of course they might just deny the factual outcome anyway, cause science….
14I have trained myself whenever I hear or read the phrase “Chick-fil-A” to silently add the letters “tio.”
It seems to make more sense that way as an icon for right-wingers.
