State Rep. files house bill that would criminalize celebratory gunfire, if passed [More]So has this proven to be a problem? And this? And this?
Shooters might also be charged with deadly conduct, a third-degree felony, if someone is hurt. The fine can be as high as $10,000 and includes a prison sentence of two to 10 years.And how successful have edicts been at stopping the problem in places where it's banned?
Still, how can I argue with the sponsor of "Mexican Fruit Fly Awareness Month"?

A new state law designed to punish more severely those who shoot and injure someone by firing a gun in celebration was not used for its intended purpose during the law’s first year but has been the basis of other firearm prosecutions.
