    Sounds dangerous over there. Do you need ice with illinois national guard backup to help bring you freedom?

    Crime is out of control in Texas! What a lawless wasteland the pedophile party has made.

    This is the third firearms-related outage problem Spectrum has had in the last 12 months.

    Texas, which will feel the warming more than other areas of the USA, is strongly religious, Republican, and needs to be isolated for everyone's protection

    I thought "stray bullet" meant it didn't hit what was aimed at and just strayed off. This seems pretty deliberate. And for anyone who doesn't feel like reading the article, it's not happening in just Texas.

    I read the article, but I don’t think it’s deliberate at all. There are 150M guns in the US, and lots of gun owners are morons. Episodically targeting Ohio, Texas, and California doesn’t seem like it would do much to benefit anyone.

    Only way this would be more American if someone was also shot.

    The comments section here reads like a coping session for spoiled children who didn't get what they wanted. Came here for Linux, leaving with questions.

    So when I moved to chucklefuck South Carolina, the first morning I'm our new house there was a shot and the power went out.

    Neighbor was shooting at a bird on the power line.

    They're not like hail or anything, but it happens regularly enough they hit something important now and again. Mostly, they cone from people firing into the air.

    I asked a couple of roofers and they find them embedded in people's roofs all the time. It's rare for them to hit people, but it has happened before.

    Despite being a red state, I rarely hear about stuff like this in Kentucky.

    If I do it's usually around July 4th.
