some yahoo just had to prove his stupid was stronger than his drunk.

Still only one cop as I'm typing so I guess no big deal

guy just had to show off his new gun to his buddies.Drunk and stupid covers it.
He will wake up tomorrow in the lockup minus one shiny new gun.
Nothing bad happened...he fired into the woods i guess...from his backyard...in town..a known drunk from what my buddy says.
No biggie....all is well in bobtown
