Gun Owners Vs. Lawn Care

Grumps points out a story from Ohio which tells of a crank threatening city workers with a gun. The city workers came to mow the man's lawn when he refused to and it was becoming an eyesore.

Fortunately, and to the surprise of one of his neighbors, things were resolved peacefully.

Sadly, it doesn't always end do well.

A Washington County man has been charged with murder and other weapons related charges for shooting his girlfriend's son to death. The shooting was a result of an argument about the woman's grandson mowing the lawn.

As I have been saying all along, I am just as afraid of the people that think everything can be settled with a gun as I am of the criminals.
