Stupidity - noun. stu-pid-i-ty, The state, quality, or fact of being stupid.

You've got to be kidding.

A California woman accidentally shot herself and a friend the other day while trying to kill mice that she saw run across her trailer floor. Yes. One of the many reasons why Americans should need an IQ test before they travel, because you know that she is the kind of person going across the world asking people to 'speak American!'


The story:

POTTER VALLEY, Calif. — A Mendocino County woman who was trying to kill mice in her trailer with a gun ended up shooting herself and another person.

The 43-year-old woman pulled out her .44-caliber Magnum revolver after she saw the mice scurrying across the floor of her trailer on Highway 20 in Potter Valley, sheriff's officials said.

But she accidentally dropped the gun, which went off as it struck the floor. The bullet went through the woman's kneecap, bounced off the keys sitting on the belt loop of a 42-year-old man in the trailer and grazed the man's groin before ending up in his coin pocket.

Authorities did not release the shooting victims' names.

The mice escaped the shooting unharmed.

At least the mice are ok.
