A Shot In The Arm

On some gun forums it seems like if someone shoots a part of their own body they are probably packing a badge. Of course there are those times when the firing isn't accidental.

But sometimes that is just stupid.

Man shoots himself in arm after being denied sex

FORT MYERS, Fla. - Authorities say a Fort Myers man shot himself in the arm after his girlfriend refused to have sex with him. The Lee County Sheriff's Office reported that a 29-year-old man and his girlfriend returned home from a bar early Wednesday morning.

The girlfriend told deputies that her boyfriend wanted to get intimate, but she just wanted to go to sleep. When she refused, he became irate.

Authorities said the girlfriend went to a spare bedroom, and several minutes later she heard two gunshots. She told deputies her boyfriend came into her room and threatened her. He then stumbled into the kitchen before falling into the oven, knocking himself unconscious.

Now, if this guy had a badge he would probably get time off with pay, a union lawyer to represent him in court and be returned to duty with his gun still on his hip.
