Interesting form of self defense

[Conan The Librarian]

Boy throws rock at car. Driver shoots boy with crossbow. Theres a symmetry to that! More likely the boy's friend was goofing off with a crossbow and shot his buddy.

I hope at least they slap his hand for throwing rocks at passing cars.......

Back in the late 60s when I was in jr. high a friend of mine was throwing firecrackers off an overpass. He got tired of the sport and lit a 250 string of firecrackers and threw them. Just as he threw them a state trooper drove under the overpass. The string of firecrackers caught around the light (back in the day when patrol cars had the single light on top, not the bar). Well the trooper thought he was being machine gunned, did a panic stop rolling out of the car into a ditch before he realized what was happening. Lets just say the my friend's rest of the day did not go so well and he never did anything like that again.

A punk throwing rocks at an old mans house late at night was shot in Lou KY. The old guy had been harassed by these punks for quite some time and they woke him up, he thought he was being attacked. I feel sorry for him, not the punk. POWDERMAN.
