Last night, probably a little before midnight, I very distinctly heard semiautomatic gunfire. It was definitely NOT fireworks. My fiance and I looked at each other and just went "wow". I'm glad it wasn't that close to me.
I hope no one was hit or shot by any of the random (ish) gunfire last night. I saw the awesome fireworks show put on every year by Indian Hills Fire/Rescue. 2nd Year in a row and this year beat out last year. Of course up in the mountains (Baileyguns knows this well) it's a common sight (er audio) for gunfire to go off after a big fireworks show... But of course Jeffco Sheriff had more important things to do than go after punk kids- harass a couple guys I know for less than legally parking outside Golden.

Gotta admit, it would have been fun to bump-fire a 30 rd. mag of tracers from the AR up into the air.
