News anchor idiocy

[TheGrey]

So, I'm watching Fox31 news, and they're at the story of the UPS driver that chucked a delivery package over the gate of a house (breaking the gun-related cleaning equipment inside, as well as scattering the ammo that the homeowner bought.) The UPS driver also peed on the guy's house- all of this was caught on surveillance video.

That's not what struck me. After the story segment, the three news anchors were chatting. Dave Frasier, the weather guy, said, "Didja notice all of that ammo that scattered from the package? What if one of those bullets had gone off?"

*headdesk*

Caught that remark too, Maybe someone should send him the link to that video where several thousand rounds were burned, ran over with a bull dozer and other ways of destroying ammunition to show Fire depts. that it was relatively harmless.
But brace yourself when watching the video, the amount of ammunition being destroyed would make the strongest of us cry.

Unfortunately that idiocy is rampant. Sideshow Bob had a good idea, send him a vid link. It might make him a wiser individual.

Sounds about right.

Here's the video link if someone wants to send it to Dave Fraiser.

Local "news". [facepalm]

[TheGrey]

Okay, I sent it. Thanks!

[Irving]

So why did the UPS guy do that?

[Gman]

How did they have time to report on that with a new season of American Idol going on?

Thanks for that, very informative.

As cool as that video was, it sucks watching that many rounds destroyed. I mean, after the first two bonfires, was the 115K ammo store simulation necessary?

It must have been a bunch of that bad ammo that what's his name said was no good after sitting around for 5 or so years.
