Every round going up into the air is coming down somewhere with enough force to kill someone. If you are going to do something stupid, at least have the decency to just injure yourself and not someone a mile away ordering a milkshake.

That round had to come down somewhere. And that somewhere was his nipple. Hit his rib and tracked along until it stopped in his armpit. As far as GSWs go, not that bad. But, exactly why you don’t fire rounds into the air.

Seen more than one bad weapon safety things in this thread... A weapon under your pillow? That's a good way to shoot your wife while rolling around in bed.  Fire a warning shot into the air? Good way to kill a random person just going about their day. In fact when carrying a loaded weapon the barrel should always be point down at the ground JUST IN CASE it accidentally goes off.
