Man follows Joe Biden's advice

With predictable results:
A Washington state man who illegally fired a shotgun blamed his action on a piece of advice doled out by Vice President Joe Biden earlier this year.

"I did what Joe Biden told me to do," Jeffrey Barton told Washington affiliate KOIN. "I went outside and fired my shotgun in the air."

Barton pleaded not guilty to one count of illegal aiming or discharging a firearm Wednesday after firing a shotgun in the air as he chased away people he thought were trying to break into his car.

Someone from western Washington took Biden seriously? Color me unsurprised.

Why is illegal to fire a gun on a Wednesday? I mean, it´s not even the Sabbath or anything. :-)
