Just when Americans need to be taken seriously....

Up to 53,000 of them expressing interest in turning out for this.

Assuming that half of these armed peanuts get lost trying to find Florida. That still leaves over 25,000 people stupid enough to do this thing and supposedly smart enough own a gun.

I read the report in the Irish Times.
There is a 'disclaimer' in there which says

Note: "Do not actually discharge firearms into the air. You could kill someone and you cannot frighten a hurricane ! I can't believe i actually have to write this"

I'm sure all of us Americans know where Florida is 🙄

Weird that a sheriff feels the need to remind people of this. A couple of points though:

1. An IQ test is not required to purchase a weapon in the US.

2. If they're close enough to a hurricane, to shoot at it, they're in its destructive path. Go back to point #1.

why are you talking about a past event as if it hasn't happened yet?🤔

whowasthatmaskedman · 70-79, M

This is also happening now.. Its just not the first time.. Otherwise one could consider it Fake News.@Jackaloftheazuresand

Jackaloftheazuresand · 26-30, M

It is fake news, the total of participants would be 25,000, some non participants may have guns but you said half the armed peanuts show up then that would be around 13k

Alas, as was stated (and often demonstrated) intelligence is not among the criteria required to purchase a gun here. Is this yet another example of the precepts of Darwinism ? 🤔

Don't shoot it you idiots, get out your Confederate flag so it'll ripple nicely in the breeze.

Damn, that's some painful stupidity.

Omg. I almost hope the hurricane will kill all these dumbasses shooting at it. How stupid can they be?🙄
