Minnesota Man Shoots His CD Player

[The Computer Audiophile]

This is too good. 
 

“The defendant said he was upset with his multi-disc CD player because it would not work. He brought it outside and shot it with his shotgun 2 or 3 times. He said he then beat the player against his truck 10 to 15 times.”

Don't you guys think that Americans tend to abuse firearms.?  

When all you have is a hammer, everything is a nail.

You forgot cheap ammo even though ammo inflation has been pretty severe the last few years.

Oh I’m sure this guy has a stockpile of ammo from when it was dirt cheap 😁

No -- but when they want to destroy something, they don't have the choice of a gun, so they have to use a knife (or machete.) :-).  I am not intending to be rude -- just kidding.

I am a USer who used to drink a little (too much), and one thing that frightened me is the risk and responsibility of carrying a gun.  I thought one time about it -- for about 5minutes, and thought it to only be a risk, no benefit for ME.  I didn't run around where I needed that much protection anyway.   Those of us who are likely to follow the law are not likely to hurt someone.  It is the people who over estimate their competency and choose testosterone over reason that will get guns anyway.

I’ve always thought it’s strange that on one’s 21st birthday s/he can legally drink alcohol and legally purchase a hand gun. Great combo. Not.

In some parts of Europe, gun ownership is as common as in the US, if not more so. The difference is that they are mainly for hunting. Switzerland is an exception with many keeping military issue firearms in their homes.

Here's what we have 🤣

 

Hope he doesn't have a CD player that's acting up.
