Fun With Guns: Selfie of An Idiot Edition
Wisconsin wins today!
A 19 year old bought a rifle and wanted to impress everybody. So he took at selfie at 1:30 am.
Of course, the gun went off. He shot the neighbors. Right through the damn wall.
Luckily no one was hurt because the neighbors were asleep. However, had they been in their bathroom …
The man first told the police he was cleaning the gun but had to admit he was taking a selfie when that whole cleaning-the-gun story didn’t work out.
The man, who had not been drinking, was cited for discharging a firearm within city limits. –
See, I don’t believe that part either.
Thanks to Claudia for the heads up.

1Well, after all the commotion I want to see this idiot’s selfie.
2I find it hard to believe that he’s from Wisconsin, 1:24 am and he wasn’t drinking? Maybe the breathalyzer was broken?
3The day is young. Others are probably in contention…
4So he was cited? And what is the possible penalty? Any chance they’ll take his guns away?
5Depending on who he works for (if he works at all), they are going to be damned interested and someone there is going to call him in for a little chat about decision making processes and how they impact one’s entire life, especially the company. If he is in a position of a lot of public and important contact, he can count on being shuffled into a back room doing important work like counting cardboard boxes or even shuffled out the door permanently. But these boobs never think of that, do they!
6“Guns don’t kill People” ergo Selfie Sticks must kill People.
7He’s prolly the son or nephew of some bigwig, if he has a job. Look, when I buy a chicken fingers basket with extra gravy, I don’t know nuthin’ about the kid’s background. Of course if he’s wearin’ a big ol’ bandage around his head I might get curious. And if his boss also had a big ol’ bandage somewhere, it could make a good story.
8Good thing the neighbors didn’t have overactive bladders.
9Might be a whole different story. Odds are they’ll be moving asap.
“See, what happened, I duct-taped the phone to the end of the rifle, right? And then…”
maryelle – if they didn’t have overactive bladders then, I’ll bet they’re pissing themselves now.
10We need a new law: The Guns or Gonads Law.
If you do something stupid like this you get a choice: your guns or your gonads. Cause if you choose guns we sure as hell don’t want you making babies! Right?
11OK Whatever I’m kinda tired of this bs, if this dumb… keeps the gun something is wrong. It’s not an accident it’s negligent and should be a crime worthy of taking the gun away from this fool who obviously doesn’t need to own one.Maybe I’m wrong but that’s my worthless opinion.
12Yeah, that “cleaning my gun” story always covers up some stupid, drunken, ammosexual jackassery.
13daChipster. No, they’re making sure their own firearms are loaded. “Here’s the deal kid. The next time you blow a hole in our house, there will be return fire. We’re just defending ourselves.” They won’t say that and get cited for making a terroristic threat, because they’re not as stupid as the 19yo. But they’re thinking it.
I like the idea of a Guns or Gonads law. You can keep both if you’re a reasonable gun owner who never carelessly discharges a weapon. But the first time you do, it’s bye-bye reproduction or bye-bye gun, and if you sneak out and buy another one from some unlicensed source and are found out…automatic loss of both.
