Apparently Doing His Part To Help End Global Warming...

[Glenn B]

...a man, reportedly armed with a "long rifle", was alleged by a 911 caller to have been hanging out of a moving vehicle's rear right window on the Florida Turnpike as he was shooting at cows (those evil producers of methane gas that we all know is one of the major cause of global warming). Police were able to find the vehicle and the man who was a passenger in it. They also found his AR15 in the car. The driver of the vehicle said had stopped so his passenger Elvis Antonio Artola could answer the call of nature and while stopped, Artola started shooting into the woods.The driver said he did not know if Artola was just shooting into the woods or at the cows. He also said he did not want to snitch on his friend. More here.

Make sure to listen to the recording of the 911 call at the bottom of the article and to the long pause after the guy tells the 911 operator what he was reporting and where it took place. It seems the 911 operator was at a loss for words there for a bit and who can blame him. Just when you had thought you had heard and seen everything you get a call about a psycho shooting cows from a moooooooooooving vehicle.

I don't know about you but I think this guy could have increased global warming because those cows almost certainly left behind large piles of manure and steamy clouds of methane as they were running away and scared shitless.

All the best,

"Artola faces charges of carrying a weapon openly, use/display weapon during felony, improperly exhibiting a firearm or dangerous weapon, use of firearm under the influence of alcohol, and discharge of a machine gun with harm or property damage."

So will the ATF be getting involved? Why is everything a machine gun to these idiots?

Speaking of methane, thats why Mikey Moore is so bloated, its not fat, he's got ten years of farts stored up in there. Such a dedicated eco-man, but I think it has affected his outlook on life.

Maybe it was a machine gun. He was in FL not NY and while I am not certain about that state, I have been in others where full auto guns are legal. He also could have had it illegally altered to fire full auto. Bear in mind, that blurb you quoted was possibly a report of the charges, so it is possible that the police, who evidently have the firearm, believe it to be a machine gun, at least under that state's laws.

Because most people don't know what a machine gun is.
