That was a good Mythbusters episode.

"Man keeps gun in oven, apparently doesn't warn anyone who might use stove for cooking. What could possibly go wrong?"

nothing at all?
because only a fool keeps a LOADED gun in an oven?

dillenger69: That was a good Mythbusters episode.

mmmmmmmm mythbusters
could there be a better show? ever?

/ok, they could be hawt neked babes doing the show

namatad, now your world is almost perfect.

/died and gone to heaven

When did Myth Busters get so cheesy? I haven't had cable for years.

dillenger69: That was a good Mythbusters episode.

I'm happy to see Mythbusters put a bullet in the gun at the end. Very thorough, perhaps I'll watch that show every now and again.

That segment was not all that relevant to the story. They just put shells in the oven. I assume a chambered round in a gun pointed at the oven door would have a very different effect.

They did it with a loaded gun at the end. They show that a bullet fired from a gun is deadly (in case anyone needed to know that).

Not that impressive caliber.

"A man has been charged with child endangerment and unlawful gun use after a gun that he apparently kept in the oven went off and wounded two children in the Back of the Yards neighborhood."


Is Back of the Yards the town name?

Did you watch the video?

"unlawful gun use" Stupid place to put a gun but 'unlawful gun use'??? Couldn't the pigs come up with any other made-up charges like running a meth lab or stolen property or something?

happiness is a warm gun.

THIS
That's what I came here to say and I live in Chicago
/Back of the Yards neighborhood must be Southside

well of corse the obviuos a person could try and cook burrito and a bear eats the leprechauns in the freezer!

Didn't they do an episode with Kari's ass getting scanned or something? All I know is, hot girl + skintight spandex = yum

i keep mine in the toaster.

Ooh, found a screencap:

I must have missed that episode. Dammit.

wow, talk about packing heat

Rally 'round the family,
With a pocket full of shells...

Hmmm...this story is similar to another recent oven-related mishap...

Perhaps ovens need to start coming with warning labels. "WARNING! NOT FOR STORAGE OF EXPLOSIVES OR AMMUNITION"

How did she not see a farking gun in the oven is what I'm wondering.

Surprise surprise, he's a convicted felon (new window).

"Wasn't even sure I had an oven; there was a sort of cupboard in the kitchen: I used to keep books in it... til there was a slight fire incident."

Nib: How did she not see a farking gun in the oven is what I'm wondering.

Yeah. I managed to preheat an oven with a farking CD player in it.

Long story.

If he's reading this, husband will recognize the story. It was his player.

hbk72777: Is Back of the Yards the town name?

It is a neighborhood on the south-side of Chicago. Named for those infamous stockyards.

Nib: How did she not see a farking gun in the oven is what I'm wondering.

Probably preheating the oven. I've left pans in a heated oven because I didn't check before turning it on. I'm lucky my pots and pans aren't loaded firearms.

How to keep your pistol out of the hands of children.
1. Buy a big bottle of castor oil and a breadbox.
2. Give children a good dose each day for a week or two.
3. Place castor oil bottle in a bread box when children are present.
4. Pretend to forget where you placed castor oil bottle.
5. If castor oil bottle is still in breadbox two weeks later, hide your pistol in breadbox.
6. Periodically ask children to remind you to buy another bottle.

No, Dirty Jobs is much more better. Sorry, I'm straight, and even I might go pillow biter for Mike

broiled muscatel?

/obscure?
//not on fark, baby!

We had a tiny kitchen with very little storage, so we used to keep cookware in our oven.
After we pre-heated it to 350º a few times, we started putting the oven knob in there with it.

/plenty of loaded guns here
//but none of them are in the oven

This is why I say gun control is important: we must keep those out of the hands of the idiots.

I'm looking at you, entire state of Florida!

I figured it was some kind of gov't program to weed out the stupid ones and improve the gene pool.

In Madison Wisconsin, they make you police chief if you do that.


MADISON: The police chief forgot he had a gun in the oven. Then he decided to roast some turkey.

"Shortly thereafter he heard a boom" police spokeswoman Jeana Kerr said on Wednesday.

The outcome for amateur chef and full-time Madison police chief Richard Williams was a voluntary one-day, unpaid suspension for violating his department's firearms policy.

Williams said the oven is one of the odd hiding places at home where he puts his service revolver to reduce the risk of a burglar taking it. On Sunday, he forgot he placed it in the oven the day before. After putting some turkey in the oven to roast at 350 degrees, he laid down while waiting for it to cook. That's when the gun went off, firing a round through the gas stove and into a hallway banister."

What makes you say that?

Id like to see one done with all cylinders of the revolver soked with bullets.

GIS for oven...

At least the King of England won't be going near that oven anytime soon. WELL REGULATED MILITIA, HOOO!

Gigglecream: At least the King of England won't be going near that oven anytime soon. WELL REGULATED MILITIA, HOOO!

It was already illegal for a convicted felon to have a gun.

GUN LAWS TO KEEP GUNS OUT OF THE HANDS OF HONEST MEN. WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

TheFatManCometh: Is Back of the Yards the town name?

"Back of the Yards neighborhood"

NEIGHBORHOOD of Chicago

Oh you people from non-urban areas, so funny.

Hmmm, we don't have any town names like Next to the Sticks or Behind the Dumps, so it threw me off

Well, it does rhyme with "bun" in the oven, although rhyme is generally a poor if not ill-conceived way to make decisions.

baka-san, having went so far as to post that hunkalicious pic you are not "straight," you are probably bi-curious, or a prime canidate for transitional or situational homosexuality...

But that's cool, he's worth it.

Necrosis: Perhaps ovens need to start coming with warning labels. "WARNING! NOT FOR STORAGE OF EXPLOSIVES OR AMMUNITION"

the warnings in the instruction booklet for my oven only recommend against storing gasoline in the oven.

/no, really.

That sister is a dumb biatch. I always open the oven to make sure some worthless fark didnt put some tupperware or a cookie sheet in there because they dont know where it goes and they want to help tidy up the counters.

I wonder why he was keeping guns in the oven? I know the gun laws there are strict (and will hopefully go when the Heller case is decided), but this is ridiculous!
