Wow. A thug almost killed himself. Humph.
Say, who do y’all think Trump will choose as his running mate?

Should have let him exsanguinate. Waste of medical care

That’s too funny.
Those white thugs just don’t know how to handle a firearm. The perp was white, right?

Armed robbery? Of a pot dealer? In a state where pot is legal?

Doesn’t exsanguination require a permit?

The teenager went to put the gun back into his pants and the weapon fired a bullet through his leg. You see that in the movies all the time. In real life, however, it apparently doesn't work that well. Especially after one shoots themselves in the ass.

In one sense it is a good use of military medical care.
Military docs/nurses and medics need to keep their wartime skills honed for future deployments. That’s one reason the military runs civilian trauma centers.

The Yankee Marshal on youtube has a video entitled “appendix carry: because who really needs two testicles?” It’s a scream.

He left his buttocks nearby? Does this mean he shot his a$$ off?
