Also breaking news- someone gets a bee sting today!
Here son, let me show you how to unload this weapon. You simply @##$% ....... can you call the paramedics for me?
Dang! I gotta agree with esaki..this is news?? Can't someone screw up and make a mistake and keep it private?? And I would think that this story borders on violating the person's privacy rights as they pertain to his medical status. Is the reason it's deemed permissable because a gun was discharged??
Car runs out of gas .... FILM at 11 ...... LOL, thank God they have to stoop so low to find bad news , at least all is happy and other than the person whom shot himself all will find this kind of funny !!!
