“An Armed Society Is a Polite Society” (Updated) 0

(Link fixed. I must have had a case of missing links yesterday.)

Practice makes perfect (emphasis added).

A Parma man is in critical condition after he was accidentally struck by a stray bullet fired by two men who had been target-shooting with their rifle next door.(snip)When they arrived, the shooting was ongoing and deputies set up a perimeter around the area, said Cpl. John Helfer.

For some reason, the deputies did not call in a SWAT team, but waited for the shooting to stop before moving in.

Gee, I wonder what that reason might have been . . . .

Afterthought:

Will someone please make the bastard coinage “ongoing” disappear?

Addendum:

The updated story reports that the practicing pals have been charged with assault and reckless endangerment.
