Lawful Florida Gun Owner Shot by Police (Warning Penis Joke Involved)

Local news reports

An early morning argument between a Palm Beach Shores man and a woman next door over the small size of his manhood sparked a police shooting that left the man wounded and facing years in prison, Gossip Extra has learned.

Police sources tell me Adam Brown, 45, was swimming naked in the pool of the El Coqui apartment complex about 2:30 a.m. yesterday when a female neighbor started trash-talking about his penis.

“She said something about it being really small,” said one investigator at the scene who asked not to be named. “So, he just got out of the pool, still naked, walked into his apartment and came out with a rifle.”

Brown allegedly knocked on the door of the woman, identified as Jenny Arroway, after she retreated inside. When she opened, the source said he pointed the rifle at her face, then ”he told her: ‘How do you like the size of this?’”



I've noticed that pro-gun folks frequently accuse gun control folks of making penis jokes. So frequently that, in fact, the accusations actually outnumber the offensive jokes themselves.

Rarely do we have a news story about gun misuse that actually contains the famous joke.]

For me, the emphasis on this story is not the guy's dick size, but the fact that he was another lawful gun owner who resorted to bullying behavior with a gun when pressured. I suppose the iceberg-theory which they apply to DGUs applies here as well. 95% of these incidents do not get reported. The ones that make the news are a tiny fraction of what's actually happening.

What's your opinion? Please leave a comment.

Your headline promised a joke. There was no joke. I protest.

Is this how you fuel your fallacious assertions about complaints outnumbering actual jokes? You owe me a penis joke. I'm waiting ...

''...Adam Brown, 45, swimming naked in the pool of the El Coqui apartment complex''


Coqui is the common name for several species of small frogs endemic to the island of Puerto Rico, onomatopoeically named for the loud sound males of two species make at night, the common coqui and the mountain coqui. Many different species of small frogs create the family of the coquí. The Common Coqui is a general nocturnal predator.....

It is about gun control advocates being juvenile bigots because they don't have mature and logical arguments.

... with his inane rants and flog his pitiful blog then the least he can do is give us a dick joke.

I'm with Straw Man -- he owes us a dick joke and I'm not leaving until I get one.
