    The man then drove into nearby Pickens County and pulled onto some property, where shots were fired. Sheriff’s office investigators said they don’t know who fired shots, but neither security officers nor deputies used their weapons.

    I guess the trees were exercising their second amendment rights.

    Edit: from another source

    Investigators determined that they were warning shots fired by a property owner on Jones Mill Road, the news release says. No shots were fired by security officers or law enforcement during the incident.

          Haha I was already getting downvoted to hell so I didn’t see much point of looking it back up, but cheers for your googling.

              I was already at around -5 actually at that point, which was quite amusing. And the vitriol like this continues to be incredibly amusing. Such a reaction over such stupidly small things.

                  Haha, my incredibly controversial quote of some podunk newspaper about a minor note in a page 7 story. Yes, absolutely, what a transgression. I truly am scum.
