Pamela Vecsey underwent six hours of surgery after being hit in the eye with the vegetable Saturday night, but doctors were not able to restore her vision.

Police say she was arguing with her husband, Roderick Vecsey, when he threw the carrot.

Roderick Vecsey is charged with second-degree assault and disorderly conduct.

He is free on 500 dollars bond.

Time to go door to door and confiscate all vegetables before they hurt again

There should be a ban on carrots and other such vegetables.

The doctor was quoted as saying, "At least it's not a tuber."

I agree - if they continue to root around for more evidence, something will turnip.

Register deadly carrots NOW. There needs to be 5 day waiting period on the purchase of produce.

I know, I know... some of you are saying, "If carrots are banned, only criminals will have carrots."

As James Taranto said today: It is a scandal that thanks to the carrot lobby, Americans--even the mentally ill, convicted criminals and stalkers--are able to buy these dangerous weapons without so much as a license or background check. We need carrot control! It's the only way to deal with crime at its roots.

Some of you are even saying, "Of course you know THIS means war!"

When carrots are outlawed, only outlaws will have carrots.
