They will shoot off their own hand!

Sun-Times Media Wire

March 25, 2010 (GREEN GARDEN TWP., Ill.) -- A 20-year-old Will County man accidentally shot himself in the hand while he and a friend were shooting at an abandoned farmhouse earlier this month in the far southwest suburbs.

Matthew B. Eastman and Nicholas A. Bastian, both 20, were returning to Eastman's residence at 11103 W. Dralle Road in Green Garden Township near Monee, reportedly after shooting at an abandoned farmhouse with a .45-caliber handgun and a .22-caliber rifle, according to Will County Sheriff's Police.

"The two then stopped their vehicle in order to shoot the guns again, at which time Eastman accidentally shot himself in the right hand," police said.

Eastman was taken to Silver Cross Hospital in Joliet and treated, before being charged with unlawful use of a weapon and unauthorized possession of a firearm, according to Will County Sheriff's office spokesman Pat Barry.

Bastian, of 27359 Wildwood in Monee, was not injured, Barry said, but was charged with unlawful use of a weapon.

At one time we allowed the stupid to kill themselves off, now we protect them from their self. This allows the moron gene to keep reproducing. Early days of the human species the moron gene was kept in checked because there was nothing to protection for them. If you did something less than intelligent while hunting or gathering chances were you would die. As time went on more and more protection were added and consequently these morons keep surviving and multiplying. Now we have these two practicing their Darwin right to eliminate each other so the fittest could survive.

If you leave them to themselves, they will cleanse the gene pool.

LOL!!

And it does not cost the taxpayers a dime!

We have a local town known for being in the shallow end of the gene pool and for having severe dental problems. Know why we know toothpaste was invented there? Anyplace else they would have called it teethpaste.

Someone definitely wasn't using acceptable gun safety practices...probably fired from inside of the vehicle. I have to agree with you, they will flush themselves out and, unfortunately, there's no cure for stupid. blink

there is no cure for stupid and usually these are the people that reproduce at a faster rate.
