Had a 13 year old boy get hit and killed by a falling bullet just a couple months ago where I live. It was incredibly shocking and sad. He was out playing basketball with his friends and boom just fell over. They didn't know what was wrong at first.

People like this are the reason we should have stricter gun laws. Some people are just too stupid.

 

[Kibbles]

Wait, I thought these were all just Facebook jokes about DBZ & stuff. Some person's actually doing this?!

That reminds me I saw some video of a bunch of worshippers singing religious songs on the beach with their hands up to the sky trying to pray the storm away or some shit, assholes had children with them, pretty sickening.

Now all we need to do is appeal to the overly dumb animal friends as well.
Tell them that Floridian Alligators need parachutes to survive the incoming catastrophe, then send any volunteers that show up into the swamps. Worst comes to worst, the gun nutters can shoot at flying 'gators during their storm shootout.

Signed, not a hungry Alligator.

Joking aside, arrrrgh, it burns.

 

[StopMakingSense]

Nuke it

This won't work. Hurricanes are way more powerful than any of our nukes.

Laws already exist. It's already illegal in most states to do this, so if you're caught you do jail time.

Imagine thousands of stray bullets circling around in a hurricane....

Brb going to call syfy

 

[SchrodingerC]

Yes, that's what we need, a bunch of jackasses shooting thousands of bullets into the air with the potential to kill someone later.
Shoot beer cans or something you redneck fucks.

ok, but what if we used multiple nukes

 

[KojiKnight]

In regards to 'reality' and physics and what not, what are the odds a bullet would swirl around and potentially hit someone with enough force to injure not in the direction the bullet was shot?

Like zero. The winds aren't going to be enough to adjust the trajectory of the bullet without slowing the bullet down to resistance.

If they all fired at the storm while it was pointed at the ocean it wouldn't do much but scare a few already scared fish. The problem is if they tried shooting it over land and suddenly you have people being hit by stray bullets just like when people celebrate by firing guns into the air any other time.

Please, CONTEXT. I NEED to KNOW.

I saw the title and though he was going to shoot it as in "shoot" video of it. Little did I know...

lol same. Shooting guns at a hurricane...people are so dumb.

Leaving aside the ridiculous number of multi-megaton warheads you'd need to match the power of a hurricane, leaving aside also the question of why you'd think it would be a good idea to add to the thermal energy that drives the hurricane, there are test ban treaties.

sure, right. But what if we used like a bunch of nukes?

 

[Fancyarcher]

I hope he hit that storm hard. It was coming from him, he needed to strike back.

Do Americans feel embarrassed for other Americans ?

Sometimes, but these kinds of stories rarely happen. Most people aren't that dumb to fire at storms anyway, they just usually run, despite what people on this thread are joking about.

 

[SoRuffShoNuff]

I don't see why a few bullets would make it any more dangerous, the thing is already going to be hurling rocks and other debris.

 

[Dog Problems]

All the time.

2017 news headline: "825 Florida Men missing at sea after attempting to shoot hurricane Irma"

2020 news headline: "As of 332AM, Eastern Time, we can make a call for the Great State of Florida, by a margin of 624 votes. Its 29 electoral votes will go to.. Al Franken."

This won't work. Hurricanes are way more powerful than any of our nukes.

And people say we don't need more powerful bombs. Until we can kick natures ass and negotiate from a position of strength I won't be nice to it

Can the primary just go to Kasich instead?

What if we used lasers?

[SuperStiltzkin]

lmao, Griffin was just talking about how you can't just buy the biggest gun at Walmart and shoot the hurricane away on the latest MBMBAM.

[WaterAstro]

I think anyone who shoots the hurricane should be arrested and charged with something.

 

[boredofcanada]

These posts were all made as jokes but of course there's that one idiot who doesn't get that, and what a surprise, he's also a gun nut.

 

[shoreu]

Nuke it

Someone had the gal to actually suggest this to me the other day i almost screamed

 

[Gulz1992]

I command you to destroy the hurricane.

Seriously, this is stupid as fuck.

No one has to deal with Americans more than other Americans, so yes.
