Turn That Down!

Grandpa gets enough of the loud music and goes postal:

Showell's shooting spree took place in early February last year when he went to neighbour Mr Kenfield's house in the Geelong suburb of Newtown.

The wounded Mr Kenfield ran to the nearby Bareena Bowls Club chased by Showell, who hit him seven more times before the gun jammed.

At one point during the attack Mr Kenfield ran at Showell saying, "If you are going to shoot me, then shoot me."

Showell then fired two shots into the victim's chest from close range, then one more while he was lying on the ground.

Note to the young Mr. Kenfield: that sort of bravado, heroic bullshit only works in the movies. If someone is chasing you with a gun, he's not going to suddenly stop and contemplate the strength of your handsome jaw-line and reconsider the error of his ways due to your idiotic, ad hoc speech. He's going to shoot you.

But his victim survived - despite being hit with eight .32 calibre bullets.

And thus we finally come to the all-important moral of this little tale: if you're going to kill your annoying, idiot neighbor, be sure to use a real gun. Most air pistols are more dangerous than a .32 ACP.
