and a testicle while cleaning a gun he had just bought, police said.

Michael Smeriglio, 18, initially lied to police and claimed he had been shot as he walked down the street in Port St. Lucie, Florida on Thursday.

But after he was questioned by police, he admitted he had done it to himself while cleaning a gun at a friend's house on Verada Street

That took balls...

Unlike baseball if you get to ball two in this game you are OUT! ;-)

“You’ll shoot your balls off, kid.”

Well, not anymore.

Purchased the gun at a party. Is that a legal buy in Florida?

[ken in texas]

Possibly. Now that he’s “less” of a man he could always try to get thrown in jail in Massachusetts and petition for a sex change. This one would be a bargain for the taxpayers because there are fewer parts to remove.

“I see he has a gun with a decocker feature”

Haha! that is good! How about “I guess he’s partial to ball ammo” Gee, I can’t believe nobody else thought of that one...

I believe it makes you a full fledged Darwin Award winner. All you have to do is remove yourself from the gene pool.

Question: If you shoot your own balls off, does that make you an honorary Darwin Award recipient, even though you’re still warmer than room temperature?

Yes, IIRC to be eligible for the Darwin Award you must remove yourself from the gene pool before reproducing, either by death or disfigurement.

LOL! I seriously doubt it....From the story it sound like the teen was a drug dealer.(hold my bong?)

[matt04]

From the article: A teenager is recovering after he accidentally shot himself in the penis and a testicle while cleaning a gun he had just bought, police said.

Depending on damage, the remaining testicle might not do him much good.

LOL, kid must be a Romney supporter.

Oh nuts...

[RingerSIX]

Q: What’s the difference between this teenager and a gunfighter?

A: One cocks his gun and the other guns hi.....er... nevermind.

[Little Ray]

What sort of idiot doesn’t clear the weapon before he starts cleaning?

If he's uncircumsized and the bullet hit him on the end of his you-know-what, does that mean he was left with a jacketed hollow point? Or was he just counterbored?

I think the joke potential here is almost infinite

[manic4organic]

He sounds about half nuts.

“What sort of idiot doesn’t clear the weapon before he starts cleaning?”

The same kind that james the weapon in his pants without a holster.

Now he can go sing in the choir, as a soprano.

Probably a Full Darwin award to his unborn children. Since he shot it through and through he’ll be a side shooter. I think the little pollywogs may get lost on the way to the target.
