    Why not to use a gun to drill a hole

    http://www.kctv5.com/news/15698864/detail.html

    I can't imagine grabbing a gun to put a hole in the wall.

    Wow... that's just awful... Good thing I'm a tool junkie -- I think I'd see that installation problem as an excuse to go buy a new tool.

      I hope they lock him up and throw away the key. That kind of stupidity should not be out in society!

        OMG. Has the gene pool deteriorated that badly? Or was he planning something else all along?

            That has to be at least involuntary manslaughter and reckless disregard for human life. I don't care if he gets probation; they should charge him anyway. Besides, is this the kind of guy who should be taking care of two kids?

              He was certainly reckless and stupid. I also noted that it was the second shot that hit her. She must have moved to the location where he was shooting after hearing the first shot?!

              Two kids. Too late for a Darwin award to do any good.

                He was under the impression that everybody was inside the residence, that he knew where everybody was at,” said sheriff's department spokesman Maj. Robert Hills.

                So the neighbors were on their own, huh? Lock him up and get him fixed so he can't degrade the gene pool any further.

                  If your only tool is a hammer, you tend to treat all problems as if they were nails.

                      What a tragic display of negligence and stupidity. And they can't decide whether or not to file charges?? Puhleeeze... Next thing you know, this moron will be using hand grenades to spread fertilizer. What a waste...

                              I wonder if this guy went ahead with the install of his TV with the knowledge that he will never have to share the remote
