Never Bring Fists To A Gun Fight...

...unless you're a MMA fighter.

Good thing Chicago has such restrictive gun laws, otherwise convicted felons would have guns and would be robbing people. Oh, wait....

Why was Miranda, a convicted felon, walking around at all - with a gun no less? We need new judges and more capital punishment!

...exactly...the system cares more for the rights and the sensitivities of those who rebel against it than of those who live within its rules...we pay the bill for this foolishness... :thumbs2:

"During the fight, Miranda accidentally discharged his own gun, shooting himself in the ankle, police said."

:smilelol5:

I'm thinking he didn't have much control over his gun hand at that point.

From the looks of the felon's face the fight was stopped due to strikes! He should've tapped.

I'm thinking that he lost control of his bladder at roughly the same moment. :smilelol5:

OTH, he now bears the face of a penitent man. "rlol" Priceless!

and he was charged with aggravated discharge of a firearm.

He was "distracted", maybe by a roundhouse kick?

That gave me a good chuckle, goes to prove the point about people just giving up when a robber threatens them. Seems like his plan backfired and now he's recieved a good ol fashioned butt whoopin and a hole in the ankle.
