      They’re not like hail or anything, but it happens regularly enough they hit something important now and again. Mostly, they cone from people firing into the air.

      I asked a couple of roofers and they find them embedded in people’s roofs all the time. It’s rare for them to hit people, but it has happened before.

    So when I moved to chucklefuck South Carolina, the first morning I’m our new house there was a shot and the power went out.

    Neighbor was shooting at a bird on the power line.

    Despite being a red state, I rarely hear about stuff like this in Kentucky.

    If I do it’s usually around July 4th.
