Fun with Guns: Groin Edition

August 09, 2013 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

So, here’s the story.  A man in Norfolk, Virginia, in full daylight, was speeding down the street in a residential neighborhood where kids were playing in and around the street.

A couple of residents waved at him to slow down because – obviously – there were kids out playing.  Man does a U-Turn and comes back waving a pistol and hollering.  He wanted everybody to know that he has Second  Amendment rights which also give him neighborhood speeding rights.

In the process of scaring crap out of everybody, especially the little kids close by, the pistol goes accidentally goes off.

He shot himself, thank God.  In the groin, oh yes thank you very much God.

They say that God works in mysterious ways.  Nope.  God knows exactly what he’s doing.

Thanks to Hilary for the heads up.

Be social and share!

    What can you say? An idiot with a weapon will do idiotic things with that weapon and may even ruin his gun 😉 For those of you who were never in the military, that may be a mystery, for those of us who were, know exactly what it means.

  2. Well, hopefully that stop his defective genes from getting carried on.

    Serves him right. So glad that no innocent lives were affected.

  4. Yeah, JJ. You didn’t specify whether he damaged his Crown Jewels, but we can hope.

    Let’s try, really hard, to do the right thing, and be happy Rhonney Jacobs’s self-inflicted injury is not life threatening. Hey, I can sense it! Some of you are not trying.

    Could not have happened to a nicer guy!
    Let’s hope that gene pool is closed for good.

    He went off half cocked.

  8. LOL at Kate oDubhagain … yes, he certainly did or, now, he really is only “half cocked!” Perfect comment!!

  9. Would any of the beauty salon patrons know if this sort of thing ever makes it to the NRA or other guns are us blogs or websites especially? Betting they do not want anyone else to know that there is a gun owner out there that has the IQ of kelp.

    How unfortunate that everyone else in the area didn’t carry firearms. Nothing protects the children in a residential area more than pitched gun battles.
    (/snark)

    Seriously, this is the inevitable consequence of the NRA’s “carry firearms at all times” push. People feel helpless, so they buy guns. Once they have a gun, they feel powerful – and some of them have a nasty tendency to want to demonstrate that power.

  11. A depressing thought: AT 43 years old he probably has already made his contribution to the gene pool.
    Sigh.

  12. Yes Bernard. I know exactly what you mean!

  14. We can only hope he was listening to the Rolling Stones on his car stereo when he shot himself:
    Oh, you can’t always get what you want
    But if you try sometimes, you just might find
    You get what you need

  15. Yesterday, on my way to work at the hospital in Cheyenne (that’s Wyoming as in the WILD west…sigh…) standing at the counter was one of the regulars. This guy is usually sitting out front, greeting everyone and sometimes talking loudly to noone in particular. (Getting the picture…maybe not playing with a full deck.) His standard “uniform” has been a black, long sleeve Wrangler shirt, black denim Wranglers, black cowboy boots and a black cowboy hat. Not kidding. About 3 or 4 weeks ago, I noticed he had added to his ensemble……….
    ………….a black bulletproof vest (worn on the OUTSIDE of his shirt) with various pieces and parts of what can only be assumed to be firearms stuck in places in the vest. I haven’t looked too closely as, quite honestly, I have been reluctant to engage him in ANY type of conversation. And I didn’t want to stare to try to figure out what was all on and in his vest. (Plus, I know NOTHING about firearms.)

    So yesterday morning, I had gotten there while he was still at the counter getting his coffee. I went and stood in line. A minute later, a man walks up and says “that’s not exactly a comforting site at Starbucks..that guy has enough ammo to blow us all away and then some. What on earth is that about?” The guy directly behind me and myself turned and nodded, wide-eyed, in agreement. Then the man said “I asked him why he had all that and he yelled at me to ‘shut up you democrat!!!'”

    Sooooooooooooo…………….dude with perhaps some mental instabilities (as witnessed when he’s been seen talking to noone while sitting out in front of Starbucks “welcoming” the customers)………..now wearing a quite obvious bulletproof vest with tons of ammunition and who knows how many firearms (I really don’t look at him..I avoid his eyes and even looking in his direction)……..and then yelling at someone who asked a simple question as to his ensemble.

    Crazy much?

    And the even more crazy bit is that the Starbucks employees can’t do a damn thing about it. They have to let that nutjob sit out front in his full regalia. Nobody can do anything.

    Things that make you go “hmmmm…..”

  16. Sometimes, it just gets so hard to believe the stupidity of some people.

    JUST READ THAT A CONCEALED WEAPON CARRYING WOMAN DROPPED HER PURSE WHILE IN LINE FOR COFFEE AND SHOT HER FRIEND IN THE LEG.. ST PETERSBURG FLA.. I LOVE BAD PRESS IN FLA.. TAKES A LITTLE PRESSURE OFF OF TX.. POOR FRIEND! (PARDON THE CAPS;CAT PULLED SHIFT BUTTON OFF LAPTOP)

  18. The RawStory article linked to an article in the Virginian-Pilot, where it said that the man lives on the street he was driving on. Real neighborly to pull a gun on the folks next door.

  19. It is suspected his pistol is of a greater caliber than his gun.

    Must have been God, unless She gave him really good aim. He must have had a teeny one.

  23. No, this is just another sterling example of Father Darwin plucking another from the gene pool.

    There is a possibility he murdered all those sperm. Where are the right to lifers ,outraged at his actions…….

  25. Paula, your cat???? Prehensile paws, perhaps, or a jaws of steel bite? Would love to see that cat!

    JPH, your comment reminded me of that old Monty Python movie, the one with the song that goes “. . . every sperm is sacred.” I know what you mean!

  26. maggie, my daughters dog has removed several keys from her laptop. Apparently, plopping a paw on the keyboard to get attention is enough for them to pop off. Or, it could be the dragging the paw back off the keyboard is the culprit. Either way, it makes typing an adventure when there are just nubs sticking up for certain keys.

    Best interpretation of the day!

  28. Occasionally, there is justice in this world. My guess is that the state of Va. will have to pay for his jewels repair. Probably no insurance. Had a dude racing up & down our road today with a 3in. diameter tailpipe. It sounded like a 747 landing on the road. I suspect he’ll eventually be found wraped around a tree somewhere. Hopefully before he kills someone. Paula, please forgive your kitty.

  29. He’s got to be charged with attempted murder, you know. If his gun went off near the body part he’s probably compensating for with the gun in the first place, then sperm were damaged. And we know, in Texas potential life is sacred so, he’s gotta be charged. I’m thinking any minute now, he’ll be handcuffed to his hospital bed.

    If a woman who miscarries has to report it to her doctor or risk criminal charges, then a man who shoots himself in the groin should be charged with attempted murder. Along with the traffic violation for stopping in the middle of the street, reckless use of a firearm, endangering childrens health and safety…I want to find out just what-all he’s being charged. Too bad we don’t have a law against being stupid.

    One more thing: All those nurses who sat in the Senate chamber but couldn’t tell anyone they were nurses for fear of losing their jobs, well, those nurses will have to change his bandages. I hope they do it very, very slowly, so he feels every little bit of adhesive breaking off his tender little personal parts.

  30. Wow. I mean, Amen. (Really–this actually happened?!) It is so hard NOT to feel smug after reading a story like this…

  31. This here Maggie lives in Virginia. Once upon a time we had the experience of seeing a carful of young men drive through our neighborhood just whoopin, and hollerin’. One of them waved a pistol out the window. Told one of the neighbors who happened to be a retired cop who also worked at the local high school as security. He had the kid arrested next day on campus in front of everyone else. ‘Course this happened well before Wayne LaPierre became the High Priest of the Cult of the Gun. There is still a chance that if such happened today the charge for the arrest would be “brandishing”. Wonder if there is such a law elsewhere?

    Great Debby Burnett, a goth cowboy, splendid! Can’t you find another nice Starbucks to patronize?! I fear for your safety – that guy is obviously teetering on the edge of mental illness, or at least splashing around in the shallow end, and I fear for your safety, and that of your neighbors!

    I like coffee as much as any other of the basic four food groups (coffee, chocolate, mexican food, and other), but I’ll just have to bypass Starbucks.

    This is all the fault of permissive libruls and free love. RWNJ have to counter with free hate and a “let’s kill ’em all” attitude.

  35. From the Virginian Pilot:

    NORFOLK

    It started about 7:30 Tuesday night, when a driver came speeding down the 7400 block of Red Brook Road, residents told police.

    Neighbors confronted the driver. He returned to the scene a short time later brandishing a gun, according to police spokesman Chris Amos. The driver struggled with another man, and the gun fired. The driver was struck in the leg. He was taken to the hospital for treatment.

    The other man was not injured.

    Police charged Rhonney Jacobs, 43, who lives on the street, with discharging a firearm and brandishing a firearm, Amos said.

    This puke, Rhonney Jacobs, personifies an ‘atrocity in waiting’. Hopefully, he will be convicted of a crime that forever forbids him from getting near a gun for as long as he lives. Most times, the effectiveness of that restriction is about as protective as a restraining order, but one can hope. There needs to be, at the very least, a neighborhood watch in his (dis)honor. May I suggest the ‘Rhonney Jacobs Memorial Neighborhood Watch”, to be disbanded upon the disappearance of said perpetrator.
