FL Man Shot His Junk After Sitting On A Loaded Gun
Am Shooting Journal ^ | 8/11/2017 | F Patrick

This was a while back but worth mentioning because its humorous.

Sadly there isn't much info out there about the incident other than Jelks’ 25-year old girlfriend Shanekia Roberts reported Jelks sitting in his Nissan Altima by himself and then added a couple extra holes to his penis as well as a bullet wound to the thigh. Roberts said that he jumped out of the car and ran straight to the bathroom to presumably inspect the damage.

She followed him to the bathroom where she noticed that Jelks had shot himself squarely in his genitals. At that point, Roberts said she took him to the hospital where Jelks received surgery.

The worst part of Jelks’ day wasn’t that he sat on a gun and it accidentally went off, but that investigators found he was... Read the rest of the man shoots himself story here

Looks like he has a bullet-proof defense against child support payments from now on.

Cedrick and Shanekia.

Is Shanekia still running with Cedrick?

Is it me? Whatever happened that we now call part of the male anatomy “junk”? I mean, we’ve gone from family jewels to junk in a generation...

Microaggression against 1911s.

It was probably a Glock.

I'll jump in here to say I agree with you on that. I find it as insulting to call a man's sex organs “junk” as it is to call a woman's sex organs....all the contemptuous and trivializing terms you can think of.

God made men. God don't make junk.
