Tennessee NRA member asserts his God-given rights, kills couch:
A Maryville man was arrested and charged with aggravated assault and felony reckless endangerment Saturday after allegedly shooting a couch with a .44 Magnum.
William Michael Paine Jr., 24, Mountain View Circle, Maryville, was taken into custody at an area restaurant with the handgun still in his possession, according to a Blount County Sheriff’s Office report.
Deputies responded to the shooting call at 1:41 a.m. Saturday at a residence on Limestone Drive. When they arrived, they made contact with the 29-year-old victim, who told them that his friend’s sister and her boyfriend, Paine, came over to the residence to have “a few drinks.” When they arrived, Paine had a large silver revolver and two large knives in his possession and wouldn’t take them outside and leave them in his vehicle when asked by the victim.

ReplyDeleteCool, they have a talking couch. I'm glad my couch can't talk--I had it before I was married.
BTW, why did you show a picture of a BB gun and a bottle of some kind of colored liquid?
ReplyDeleteCouldn't you find a pic of a real gun and real booze together?
It came in the clip-art section of his Anti-gun Blogging for Idiots software that he got from HCI/VPC/BradyBunch/whoever they are this week.
ReplyDeleteI wonder what the couch was saying....probably something similar to what Anon is babbling about.
ReplyDeleteToo bad we can't have breathalyzers for blog-comments.
Hey, we have dangerous furniture down here, I'm telling you.
ReplyDelete"Too bad we can't have breathalyzers for blog-comments."
ReplyDeleteYes, but then we'd all miss you and your witty banter.
Yes, but then we'd all miss you and your witty banter.
ReplyDelete...but our aim is getting better.
That's a joke, not a death threat. I shouldn't have to point out the obvious, but we do have JadeGold on this blog.
Oh, who will rid me of this meddlesome commenter. (That's a joke not a death threat.)
ReplyDeleteI'm still laughing over the image he selected. Really? A BB gun and koolaid. Hah!
ReplyDeleteMy name is Sonya, I'm Paine's girlfriend..what the papers are saying is only half the story. The 44 misfired into the couch, and the struggle was from where everyone was drinking & freakin out..no arguments, no nothing, they're both military men playing with their guns...things get blown way out of proportion & were all gettin a kick outta how this has spread so far :)
ReplyDeleteSonya, Thanks but what are you saying about Paine. Military men misfiring guns and fighting over them doesn't sound like all that much fun to me.
ReplyDeleteWasn't fun at all..trust me..going to arraignment this morning...its just a big family mess that we all want to go away, especially seeing how it has gotten blown way out of proportion, locals are making it out like a Bonnie & Clyde type thing, and that is just a little extreme...shouldn't have been alcohol involved, especially when the "victim" threatened me with an AR-15..
ReplyDeleteWhy don't you tell us the whole story? I'll post it as a new entry.
ReplyDeleteWell. As of last night my sis was arrested for PI, her psycho man was busting windows out of ppls cars..when we were there he was showing us graphic pix of ppl hed killed in Iraq..I was ready to go. He called my man a p***y cuz he's in the guards & hadn't been on the front lines..words were exchanged & we tried to leave...my fiance was gettin up off the couch & the gun misfired..I took the gun & ammo from him as they started trying to stab him, I took their knife away and we left after dude hit me with a beer bottle...dude is on Facebook saying he's gonna murder Michael..so our atty is claiming self defense & this will hopefully all get dropped..they are getting evicted & going to rehab cuz they're strung out on oxycodone..now u tell me, who's the danger to society..my man protecting me or a psycho vet who has graphic pix of ppl he's blown their heads off with AR-15s in the closet & mortars etc or the man protecting his woman from him? U tell me..
