Let me guess, the Florida teen was in Missouri when he did this? Cause MO has a talent for bringing out the stupid in people.

@stonetools: Finally someone being properly charged for their negligence. Probably only seeing charges because of all the meth 🙁

Oh, come on. Florida is the capitol of weirdness. Dave Barry’s pretty much built his career on that.
There once was a young lad named Mitch
Who though he was cool as skiditch

Two priceless revelations from the article… I’ll let both speak for themselves:
(1) Smeriglio told police he bought the gun last month at a party.
(2) While police were investigating at the home where it happened, they discovered marijuana in the house.
