Tuesday, November 25, 2003 :::
Yeah I know, it's been a while. Sorry. Heavy performance schedule lately.
Ok, today is not so much a rant as it is my amusement at an incident I like to think of as instant karma.
In Johnson City, TN, 24 year old Jeffrey S. Murr was injured when he was struck in the head by a stray bullet fired into the air by 45 year old Gregory Allen Freeman. Normally, I would call this a tragedy and make a comment on how irresponsible people like Mr. Freeman give ammunition (pun intended) to the anti-gun lobby due to a lack of basic firearms safety. But not today.
10 witnesses observed the incident and were able to summon emergency services to the scene. What was the scene? Mr. Murr was being inducted into the KKK. He was being shot by paint pellets while he was blindfolded and Gregory Freeman was firing a gun into the air to provide the sound of gunfire.
Freeman fled the scene and was arrested at his home and later released on bond. So much for brothers until death. Of course, this does add weight to my theory that the KKK is membered with a bunch of backwoods morons.
I assume, and furvently hope, the police were not already on scene when the incident occured.
Have a happy Thanksgiving, everybody.
