  Shall not be infringed I guess
context: Several years ago someone fired a bullet right across my mom's couch and the bullet landed just next to my mom's bed. Fuck every single one of you idiots that do celebratory gunfire. >

  Go for corkscrews. Smaller but far more effective at tearing idiots a new a-hole

  May I recommend the old timey pear of anguish? >
  
  Ah yes, as featured so well on Bones… >
  
  Imagine murdering someone just because it’s January 1st >
  
  New Years resolution: make prison my new home. >
  
  Example number 26,496 of how too many people who own firearms are not responsible enough to own firearms. >
  
  God
  Guns
  Babies
  Apparently in that order. >

  When any idiot can own a gun, then idiots will own guns. >
  
  Don’t worry, no second amendment rights were harmed though >
  
  How many times do people have to be reminded that a bullet fired into the air will still inevitably hit something?
  Ignore gravity at your or other's peril. What a waste of life. >
  
  See, that's the problem. It's far more likely for it to kill someone else rather than the shooter, so they don't fucking care. >
  
  A major plot point in a book I read was New Year's Eve in Los Angeles when the gunfire was going someone snuck up and shot a victim in the top of the head to make it look like a falling bullet... And they got away for a good while because it was so believable. >
  
  A Michael Connelly fan - nice. >
  
  Yep, love all his stuff. >
  
  Texans seem to be huge fans of dead children. >
  
  Pretty sad I’ll never move to Texas forget that no thanks >
  
  People shot where there are guns. More news later. Mass shooting New Year’s Eve and now this. At what point do you ban guns? >
  
  Another shining example of responsible gun owners, everyone. >
  
  Dang. Too bad there wasn't a good guy with a gun to stop it.
  /s >
  
  Houston suburb. Heard gunfire repeatedly last night and early this morning. Rapid fire. So distinct from fireworks. Last summer a boy was shot to death right behind my house. You KNOW when it's gunfire. Such complete disregard for life. >
  
  It'll be the next big party game - "Texas or Afghanistan" >
  
  This shit happens every New Year and Fourth of July. For some reason, there are still people who think firing a gun is an appropriate way to celebrate. Why not just get some firecrackers? >
  
  Sad we need a term like 'celebratory gunfire' to distinguish it from all the other ways idiots shoot people. >
  
  It's dumb, coz this is a serious topic and all I can think of when I read those words is a gun wearing a party hat >
  
  My supervisor is from Michocan and told me he hates being there new years. They have to put steel plates over their cars from the hail of bullets apparently. >
  
  If only there was a good guy with a gun there, to prevent this. >
  
  It feels like some sort of blood sacrifice you'd see outta some religions at this point. 
  Don't go outside during holidays while in Texas yo otherwise supply side Gunesus might chose you. >
  
  Also don't go inside during holidays in Texas.
  In fact just don't be in Texas at all. >
  
  These fucking idiots are so much closer to Islamic terrorists than they could ever comprehend. Y’all Qaeda indeed. >
  
  Yep. They're all KKKaedas. Every last one of them. >
  
  Yeehaw! Price of freedom! >
  
  Texas is the worst state. >
  
  Should've had a gun to protect herself smh >
  
  As a gun owner guns are not goddamn toys... If you want to celebrate with gunfire though still really stupid. Blanks exist or you know grab some fireworks.
  Ffs celebrating with guns is a good reason to lose gun rights you morons >
  
  I really don't understand why you can't fire your gun into the ground. Why does it have to be up in the air? >
  
  The article barely tells you anything more than what the headline does lol. >
  
  also i see nothing in the article about "celebratory gunfire", only that an 11 year old was shot and killed. >
  
  the first call to police came in at 12:01, but yeah, maybe a neighbor was cleaning his gun and it went off.  /s >
  
  What is wrong with people? Hopefully they will be able to use the bullet to find the shooter. >
  
  Unlikely. You can catalog the ballistic info, but unless there's a crime with more direct involvement but the shooter using the same gun it's a needle in a haystack... And you have to know which piece of hay to file a warrant for.
  (By direct involvement I mean a crime where the shooter is more personally involved with the victim so they are a suspect and get searched.) >
  
  Celebratory gunfire shouldn't be a thing. >
  
  Where’s all the pro-gun people? Usually threads like these you get a bunch of tough guys talking about needing guns to defend against tyranny or why dont we ban cars??? or whatever bullshit. Nice to see these bitches getting quieter and quieter >
  
  Well, that's America. Murdering children with gunfire in all contexts. Here in America, It's a more of a news story when a human life doesn't get snuffed out by random gunfire. And we think we're better than a third world country for some reason. >

  Access to the article is denied for me, sadly. >
  
  We don't know it's because of celebratory gunfire, although it seems likely.
