This is also the last thing needed as focus on red states having a bigger crime rate doesn’t help by this stupidity.

Darwin principle at work.

It was not clear exactly why he died while wearing the helmet, though the headwear is not supposed to provide 100% protection.

Representatives from Acme Corporation, producers of the protective headwear, declined to comment on the matter.

That’s what friends are for. ♫

Hahaha.

Just when it can’t get more Stupid.

Wow, I’m dumber for reading that second sentence!

[Jolla]

I wonder if the guy missed and hit him in other than the helmet, it does not say where he was hit or even if he was shot in the head.

Perfect! Maybe a new Darwin Principle is in order, the ‘Double Darwin’ award.

Exceptionally rare that you find someone dumber than Kamala Harris let alone two of them at the same place and time.

‘Resistant’ is far too commonplace a word today. Ads use it left and right, should i say mis use it
Resistant can be anywhere from 1% effective to 99% it seems

Prison will be a dating paradise.

Sounds like a DNC convention.

[eastexsteve]

Sounds like we almost had a daily double Darwin award here.

Always get the other person to sign a waiver. And make sure you get the first turn.
