Worst of all the idiot just keeps right on screwing with the gun. No checking to make sure everyone is ok or seeing where the round ended up or anything.
When I was young a friend’s father took us to get his shotgun back from the gunsmith. The father was drunk. After getting the gun he stopped on the side of the road and we all got out to examine it.
The drunk father then loaded and tried to unload the shotgun. It went off right between his son AND ME.
Yes a 16 gauge bolt action shotgun. Missed two kids by a foot or so.
Stupid shows no favoritism to any country, race, religion, or color.
I jumped with the Pakistani SSG once. It was hilarious as far as the concept of “inshallah” goes.
They were showing off their brand new C-130, and as we were in the aircraft waiting to get started they were all chanting loudly and excitedly. The engines start up and the chant got quieter and less excited. We taxi, and things get a lot quieter. By the time we were airborne there wasn’t a peep out of the Pakistanis.
It wasn’t until we were over the DZ that I figured out why both doors had three or more jump masters on them… those guys literally had to be all but tossed out of the aircraft. Inshallah apparently didn’t carry a lot of weight when faced with the prospect of actual danger.
The cool part was that, on the landing zone, some enterprising youth brought along their donkeys and gave us rides to the turn-in point for a handful of rupees.
Also, northern Pakistan is some damned beautiful country. Too bad about the government.

I’d imagine the 4 Rules aren’t all that big over in Pakistan, seeing as how everything is the will of Allah.

Pardon me Dad, but I think I need to pray, and, ‘um, change my underwear.

The one boy looked like he caught it in the arm.

Of Islam, the moon-bats keep telling us “they love their kids, too”…I am not so sure about that.

Don’t criticize the Paks to much.
