ABC 13: Man accidentally shot self in foot while attempting to kill cockroach

3/9/25

"DETROIT (WKRC) - A man accidentally shot himself in the foot while trying to kill a cockroach in an unlucky and unfortunate series of events.

Police said that the victim, a 50-year-old man who uses a wheelchair, was attempting to kill a cockroach with his shoe.

He took off his shoe and threw it at the bug to kill it, but a revolver he had hidden in the shoe fell to the ground. Upon making contact with the floor, the gun discharged and the bullet hit the victim in the foot."

I used to think that if people could SEE the deadly #COVID particles come out of people's mouths & everyone could SEE how they went into another person & then that person quickly got visibly sick (eg blood coming out of their nose, coughing, collapsing then dying) while the person who shot the #COVID19 particles out of their mouth was standing there, people would change their behavior.
LAWS would be passed & enforced to save lives.
But I don't think that anymore, at least not in America.

"Two years ago, Congress considered banning 18-20 year-olds from buying AR-15s and other semi-automatic rifles after the Uvalde massacre, and some Republicans were briefly open to doing so but ultimately blocked including a ban in the bipartisan gun bill signed by Biden."
