Fun With Guns: Stand Your Driveway
You know how you sometimes get lost on a back country road and pull into a driveway to turn around?
In Virginia, a guy tried that and —
Scott said a woman setting on her porch about 150 feet from the road fired two shots at the 1999 Chevy Tahoe he was driving. One shot actually hit the running board on the passenger side just a few feet from where his five children, ages 4-12, were seated.
The alleged shooter was identified as Margie Rhea Ramey, 72, 652 Bays Mt. Road, Rogersville.
Scott reported the shooting to the Hawkins County Sheriff’s Office, and Sgt. Michael Allen responded to the scene.
“During a field interview Mrs. Ramey openly admitted to shooting her rifle towards the vehicle because she has had a continuous problem with people tearing up her driveway,” Allen said.
Ramey was charged with seven counts of felony reckless endangerment.
Mrs. Ramey is 72 years old and finally just got pissed off.
Reports say she was sitting on her front porch with three other people so I’m suspecting it was a well organized militia meeting.
