Wisconsin Takes Away Citizen's Right to Murder Own Lawn Mower
Topic: Weird Shit

Police in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, have decided that you no longer possess the right to shoot your own property.  While drunk.  With an illegal weapon.

Keith Walendowski (hooray, he's Polish! - ed.) was arrested on charges of felony possession of a saw-offed shotgun and misdemeanor disorderly conduct after a woman staying in his house alerted the authorities that a drunk Walendowskiskiskiski brandished a shotgun and sent to hell his non-starting Lawn Boy mower.  With the charges he faces, Walenskiskiskiskiskiski could face up to an $11,000 fine, plus a possible three months in prison.

Walskiskiskiskiskiski's defense?  "I can do that, it's my lawn mower and my yard so I can shoot it if I want."

Damn right!  If you lived in Texas, that is.  But not Wisconsin.

This brings up the valid point of when will people with guns realize that they're better off living in Texas?  Ah, Texas, where you're allowed to shoot whatever it is the hell you want anytime you damn well please.  Just as long as your gun is legal.  Or in your yard at the time you're shooting whatever it is has raised your ire.

Hell, we're about to go blow away a hackberry tree growing behind our house with a .357 magnum just because it blocks the view from our bathroom window to the hot neighbor's bedroom.  We mean, it's screwing up our house's foundation.  Yeah, that's it...
