A driver, now identified as an Asheville firefighter, shot a bicycle rider because he was angry the man was riding with his child on a busy road, Asheville police said.OK, that is a bit of a cheap shot. These kind of nutty things happen in other countries as well...
The shooting happened Sunday morning on Tunnel Road.
Officers said the victim was riding with his wife and had his 3-year-old son in a child seat attached to his bicycle when a driver approached him.
Police said the driver, Charles Diez, claimed he was upset that the victim was bike riding with his child on the heavily traveled Tunnel Road.
Diez pulled a gun and opened fire, hitting the victim in his bicycle helmet, according to police.
They said the bullet penetrated the outer lining of the helmet but did not actually hit the victim's head.
Police arrested Diez and charged him with attempted first degree murder.
His bond was set at $500,000.
Diez has been a firefighter with the Asheville Fire Department since 1992, according to officials.
On Monday, they confirmed he has been placed on paid investigative leave pending the outcome of this investigation.
But since the NRA-dominated US believes that the Constitution implicitly enrolled everybody into a "militia"
Second Amendmenteverybody in the US has a "right" to carry guns. So when you get angry, you don't yell at them, you point a pistol and shoot. And you get the above result. Only in America.
A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed
My real question is: Where is the NTA? (the National Tank Association) Where are those American patriots fighting for the rights of tank owners to drive their 60 ton heavily armed tanks up and down the streets of America exercising their Second Amendment Rights? I think the NRA are a bunch of wimps. Real Men won't stay in the NRA. Real Men will quit and join the NTA. That's right: real toys for boys! Patriot pride. Put a tank in every house! The only protection against an oppressive government is having every householder in US in the cockpit of a fully armed, fully loaded tank ready to take on any government agent who would dare undermine the sacred freedoms guaranteed by the Constitution!
Meanwhile, back here in Canada, I'm trying to support you Americans by setting up a NABA (National Atom Bomb Association). That's right! I want to amend the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms to allow every decent right-thinking Canadian to bear arms, real arms, atomic bombs.
Progress report: so far I've got myself qualified as a true Red & White Canadian patriot, so I've signed myself up to get the first A-bomb. I want to expand membership in NABA, but I've finding it hard to find true blue Red & White Canadians that I could entrust with the solemn right to bear nuclear arms. So I'm a bit stymied. I figure I'll have push forward on my own. My first project is to put my A-bomb in the front yard with a sign "if you touch this, the last sound you will hear is the sound of freedom!"
