She should have aimed a bit lower. This guy needs to be removed from the gene pool. :grin:

Not too bright.

I heard a rumor...yuk yuk...

That DPS is going to make a gender specific CHL target for women...

I heard they can get 10 points for hitting something...I don't know what that would be, but they seem pleased to make this change...

I certainly hope not. It can't help but give new meaning to the saying: "keep 'em in the 10 ring".


Pretty much a guaranteed one shot stop. :shock:
