They mostly practice on moving targets - at least they're moving after the first shot...

Or not moving?

So sad "A 2-year-old boy was fatally shot by his 3-year-old brother in Gary Friday night"

I am amazed at how stupid some adult are, leaving guns accessible to small children.

Just a Sat evening headline "At least five people have been shot, including a 16-year-old boy, in gun violence across Chicago this weekend, police said." Snow forecast tonight up to 3 inches might slow things down a bit, we can only hope.

3 feet might do some serious slowing down...

Mon morn headline
"Teen boy among at least 14 shot, 1 fatally, in weekend gun violence"
A bit of a slowdown.

Reduced number reported - not the same as a true slowdown.
Never pose an answer when the old pessimist is in pain and waiting for the Rx meds to kick in - unless you want a truly pessimistic response.
Maybe my body wouldn't hurt if I didn't try to do "normal" things?

"Maybe my body wouldn't hurt if I didn't try to do "normal" things?" What? You, Papa, do normal things?

Push the garbage cart to/from the edge of the road.
Step up on the toilet seat lid to add grommets to the corners of the grille on the exhaust fan to make it run quieter.
Use cardboard to more easily slide under the back of the truck and the SUV to check tire air pressure.
Try to stand long enough to wash my hair and shower this old body.
Slide out, lift and empty the 17lbs-when-full "bucket" on the dehumidifier.
Carry the 5ft fiberglass stepladder up from the basement so I could reach the ceiling fan on the screened porch and remove the blades before the pressure wash crew destroyed those blades the next day.
While the ladder is available, take down the wooden swing out there to protect it from the bleach in their wash solution.
You know - simply "normal" things ;-)
Maybe that's why the back surgeon's PA sometimes looks at me oddly when I complain about what it hurts to do? I am old enough to be his grandfather - and I don't expect a lot of 70+ people would consider what I try to do "normal".

Why be normal. That's no fun.
