My roommate bought a hand gun

edited September 2008 in Social Entropy++
So, it seems that my roommate just bought a hand gun... from a thrift store... for three dollars. I'm not quite sure what I think of this turn of events.

It doesn't have a safety.

    For what reason did he/she give for buying the gun?

    Safeties cost extra.

    Your roommate is a smart shopper.

    check to see if the serial # on it has been filed off. if it has been, then you have a murder weapon.

    Good. Keeps Brits at bay. You should get one. Or 3- one rifle, one pistol, and one shotgun.

    is it a revolver?

    that would explain the lack of safety

    also I didn't know that Goodwill carried handguns now

    That'd be the best way to get rid of a murder weapon.

    Free gun with every purchase of 20 dollars or more.

    So I got an e-mail a while back from a guy looking for a roommate for college

    his handle was Mike UNIBOMBER (well, at least phonetically)

    And he was talking about where he got a place and kept saying how close it was to a certain gun store.

    obviously your roommate has murder on the mind

    smother him in his sleep before his natural psychotic instincts take over and he begins to hunt you through your apartment, budget pistol in hand
