The Bloomington Police are making a similar request:
“Parents, please tell your little “Ralphie” to stop shooting their “official Red Ryder, carbine action, 200-shot, range model air rifle, with a compass in the stock and this thing that tells time” all over the city.
Apparently no one told them that they’ll “shoot their eye out.”
Check with your teens at night, to make sure it’s not them. Why?
#1. It is damaging people’s property, which is a crime.
#2. They’ll shoot their eye out
#3. Someone may think it is a real gun…(not good)”
