You thought that was scary, you should have heard the guy playing taps: In June, Ansonia police rushed to Holy Rosary Church in response to a "shots fired" call. It turned out to be a military funeral complete with a rifle salute.

I was at a shotgun range when some cops appeared on a "shots fired" call. They laughed somewhat amusedly when they discovered why they were called, and IIRC showed up a little later after their shifts to shoot a round each.

I really get a kick out of the firing range near Fort Meade, MD.

It's the firing range the military from Fort Meade uses. The police from four counties use it also, as well as local city police and the Maryland state police.

It's especially interesting on automatic weapons day.

I work about a mile away, and some days it sounds like a lively little war is going on.
