holy shit I missed that too, even after reading several pages of those jokes. I didn't even realize there WAS a joke until you said it wooshed you. I didn't bother looking it up, though, because I don't care that much.

Well played, Archi. Well played.

HOUSTON –A 21-year-old man sprang into action to protect his family Thursday night when three suspects barged into their northwest Harris County home.

Title calls them gunmen, and goes on to never mention their guns again

**Ghost_Wheel22** · 2013-02-24 15:05

That sounds awfully dangerous. That 21-year old should've dove out the window instead of reaching for a firearm.

In other news Oregon has introduced HB3200.

tl;dr guns with things are scary, you can only own one scary gun with things and three scary magazines. So scary its declared an emergency.

It sure is fun cherry picking articles to try and make our arguments not look retarded. These were both linked at the bottom of that article

FULSHEAR, Texas – A 9-year-old boy was shot in the leg while walking with his grandfather Saturday afternoon in northwest Fort Bend County, the sheriff’s office said.

The Fort Bend County Sheriff’s Office said that the boy and his grandfather were walking at about 4 p.m. in the 3900 block of Nails Road when the boy was apparently hit.

The grandfather told investigators that they were walking and the boy just fell down. After examining the child, he realized that his grandson had been shot, but he did not know where the bullet came from.

He told deputies that he did not hear a gunshot.

Deputies said that they do not believe the bullet game from either of the nearby shooting ranges, and they did not know what kind of bullet hit the child.

There is a nearby riverbed where people tend to fire off guns in the woods, deputies said. They suspect that the shot came from there and that it was probably an accident.

The child was taken by ambulance to Texas Children’s Hospital in Houston to be treated for the gunshot wound. His condition has not been released, but the wound is considered to be non-lifethreatening.

Woman shot by oven while trying to cook waffles
By M. Alex Johnson, staff writer, NBC News

An 18-year-old Florida woman was only slightly injured this week when she was shot by her friend's oven, police said.

Follow @NBCNewsUS

Aalaya Walker was visiting a friend in St. Petersburg Monday when they decided they wanted some late-night waffles, The Tampa Bay Times reported. So Walker began preheating the oven — unaware that her friend, JJ Sandy, 25, was storing a magazine from his .45-caliber Glock 21 in the oven.

The magazine exploded about 9 p.m. ET, spraying casing fragments at high speed and striking Walker. She managed to pick some of the fragments out of her leg and chest and then took a bus to the hospital, where she was treated and released.

Sandy told police he'd stored the gun in a drawer but had stored the magazine in the oven. Four rounds were in the 13-capacity magazine, he said.

Gun and ammunition references indicate that the .45-caliber bullets commonly used in Glocks can explode at temperatures as low as 280 degrees — or even lower if they've been exposed to heat for a long time, which can degrades the structure.

Sandy "stated that he does not have a temperature gauge on the oven so he estimates the temperature based on how far the knob is turned," according to the police report, which was obtained by the Times. "I observed that the inside of the oven was damaged."

In a memorable 2007 episode, the popular science TV show "Mythbusters" found in several experiments that bullets can explode "once the oven was hot enough."

"Without a gun barrel to contain and direct the propellant gases, the bullets did not develop enough speed to pierce the glass or steel portions of the oven. The shell casings actually caused more damage than the bullets," it found — essentially reproducing what police said happened Monday.

Sandy wasn't charged because he had a proper concealed weapons permit, The Tampa Tribune reported.

inb4 shouldnt be cooking waffles in a warzone

I had to leave, come back, double read that, and then take a break to process the level of retarded that gun owner is.

**Boyiee** · 2013-02-25 14:51

this method of using an oven to cook waffles intrigues me.

**archibaldcrane** · 2013-02-25 15:03

I'm guessing Eggos without a toaster.

damn, I was almost about to say (without even questioning your statement) that he obviously didn't run away

**Pirian** · 2013-02-25 15:12

Shouldn't have been cooking waffles in a war zone

**archibaldcrane** · 2013-02-25 15:22

More like "shouldn't have left bullets in the oven in a woman zone".
