To be fair, the second guy that tried it didn't die, but he did make one hell of a mess. The first time, there was a young woman present that was a first-time shooter. The second time, a father was shooting with his young children. Both times, it left other shooters and the staff VERY distraught. "Uncool" doesn't even begin to describe how selfish those acts were. They probably left some folks scarred for life. At the time, I was making around 8 bucks an hour... not nearly enough money to be cleaning up blood and teeth. The only upside to it was that I managed to score a Glock 21 for $150 as a result... but cleaning caked-on gore off of it after picking it up from the evidence room really sucked.Matt T.https://www.blogger.com/profile/17729460198049602958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-70033800999983791392012-02-15T22:33:34.529-05:002012-02-15T22:33:34.529-05:00Given my medical problems and fragile mental state...<b><br />Given my medical problems and fragile mental state and the fact that I haven't suck-started a shotgun, I'll harsh on whoever the fuck I want to here on my own blog.<br /></b><br /><br />A harsh reaction.

Started out with a fifth of wild turkey. Drank some, filled the tub with water climbed in, finished the bottle while waiting for the random timer to trigger.<br /><br />Thirty minutes after the timer went off, his computer dialed 911 with a recorded message. The EMTs arrived at the house to find very detailed instructions on the unlocked front door (and repeated on the bathroom door) how to safely enter the bathroom and diable the device.<br /><br />His house was empty of anything of any value. Over the next week or so most of his few remaining family and friends received shipments of personal items that he wanted them to have.<br /><br />He had owned 5 firearms which he had "loaned" out to others. I got a letter three days after his suicide that simply said "Sorry, Keep the rifle." <br /><br />F-him, I gave it to the EMT that had to haul him out of the bathroom. The couple guys I know who got boxes from him didn't even open them.
