Re: Firing a 'warning shot' into the air

He still has the right to argue TPC §9.22 NECESSITY, and that the warning shot was preferable to shooting a person.

Then there are the Mythbusters shows that show shooting something straight up means when it comes down it cannot kill someone. Break the skin a little at worst. (Shooting at any angle other that straight up gives a horizontal component to the velocity and those shots remain dangerous.)

(Doesn't mean I don't think he was a doofus.)
