Authorities in California say a 33-year-old San Diego County woman has been killed by a cannonball fired by her husband and another man.
U-T San Diego (http://bit.ly/xllWgA ) reports the woman was found dead at about 12:15 a.m. Tuesday after the ball slammed into her home at the Twin Lakes Resort mobile home park in Potrero, a tiny community near the Mexican border.
Her name hasn't been released.

Tragicomic maybe, or comedotragic. Had the cannon not hurt anything other than property, there would still be people up in arms about what it might have done.

Is this domestic violence? Domestic artillery prep, I guess.

They say, always keep a gun pointed in a safe direction until you’re ready to shoot. Why does this not go for a cannon?

Yes, everyone needs one of those pointed at the neighbors house. LOL. I actually meant where did he get the money, they are not cheap. But if you have enough money I will build you one.

All steel? No cast iron? No concrete?

Can’t have that - it might imply personal responsibility.
