I wish they would post these more frequently. A nice compendium of 'assholes with guns' stories. The kind that drives the NRA and their hangers-on nuts. Let's consider this one:

Luckily no one was hit but two old fucks with a gun seems like a recipe for disaster.

Quote:SAN LUIS OBISPO, CA, 3/27/16: An elderly San Luis Obispo resident mistook firefighters responding to a medical alarm as home intruders and fired two shots from her revolver. No one was hurt in the incident and no one was arrested, but police submitted a report to prosecutors who will decide whether to charge the woman with negligent discharge of a firearm. At about 2 AM Sunday, San Luis Obispo fire personnel responded to a personal medical alarm activation in the 100 block of Del Norte Way. The fire department has pre-arranged agreements with citizens that approves emergency crews’ entrance to their homes should the residents’ medical alarm activate, according to a San Luis Obispo Police Department news release. Firefighters entered the home, announced their presence, and found two elderly residents asleep inside. They spoke with the couple and determined the activation was a false alarm. As they left the home, firefighters heard a single gunshot from inside the house, and seconds later the female resident exited the house and fired a single shot in the air. Police responded to the house and found a daughter of the couple had already arrived and secured the gun from her mother. Police later determined the resident was disoriented when she awoke to the welfare check and, believing burglars were inside her home, grabbed her gun, accidentally firing a round while she loaded it. She then ran outside and fired a round into the air. Police said there was no indication the woman tried to shoot directly at fire personnel. The district attorney’s office will ultimately decide if a charge of negligent discharge of a firearm is appropriate.
