I really like the Sheriff's response. Surprising to here a public official say "s**t happens" when they're not involved in after action CYA. I'm glad he didn't broadly condemn shooting and firearms.
Reports of pocket Bibles saving their owners' lives pop up every so often. Richard says he's sure that God told him to put the phone in his overalls chest pocket rather than a pants pocket as usual. He said that Saturday's incident increased his faith.
Why didn't God just tell the shooter not to pull the trigger at that moment?
"He figured the bullet was fired by a hunter in woods near his 5-acre property."
.45???
Probably the clean miss I had back in 1986 or so. Finally came back down. Sorry.
The pictures Mississippi posted make it looks like a .45ACP. Picture 2 looks too long, but when you look at 7, you realize it's on a reflective surface, so the "cannelure" is just the base of the bullet being reflected.The bullet was a round nose, but I think it had a cannelure, so it wasn't a "normal" .45 ACP bullet. It looked to be too long to be a .45 FMJ.
