Although he's still alive and therefore can't qualify, I'm confident he'll make it next time...

Michael Smeriglio accidentally shoots off his penis and testicle

Police say 18-year-old Michael Smeriglio first lied to police saying someone shot him while he was walking down the street. After being questioned by police he admitted to accidentally doing it himself. Doctors say the bullet went through his penis, his left testicle and then lodged itself in his thigh.

Smeriglio told police he bought the gun last month at a party.

If it wasn't for the fact that he could have shot someone else, I'd be tempted to view this as an example of why it makes sense to sell guns to idiots. Maybe there should be an intelligence test in addition to a background check on gun sales and transfers.

Sounds like a great idea! Let's all get drunk and wasted, and sell guns!

Seriously, I have enough misgivings about gun sales at gun shows. But at a party?!?!?

Thanks for the story, Kirata.

Quite.

You are perceptive.

It is impossible to clean a gun with a bullet in the chamber. Even the most basic cleaning involves sticking a rod through the barrel. You can't do that with a bullet in there.

He probably had already shot the other one off.
