Gawd, what a heinous crime. Is the death penality out of the question. I carry a gun in the console of my SUV all the time and I go through the Pig Farm every time I go to IGA.

Question: Does your gun have a safety on it?

We need to teach gun safety, safe gun handling, etc.

Well, Money, looks like you just confessed publicly to a Class D felony.

I love it how folks just can't wait to brag to the world about the crimes they commit, be they wanna-be gangstas on YouTube or our very own Alfred E. Neuman. It's folk like them that keep the lawyers in business.

My gun has a safety on it. The safety on my gun is on. Catch me if you can. Course we are dealing with the University Police, not anything like a real police department. You kinda have to shoot yourself for them to catch you.
