A Colorado man-- who police say was curious to see what being shot felt like-- reportedly sustained a non-life-threatening injury Wednesday night after he fired a single bullet into his foot.

The Denver Post reported that Adam Hirtle, 30, told a Colorado Springs officer that he purposely shot himself in the foot while inside his garage. Police told FoxNews.com that Hirtle used a .22 caliber, semi-automatic handgun.

Shot himself in the foot to see how it felt?

It would have been a lot easier for him to ask John McCain and Mitt Romney.

The worst part is that he’ll probably get disability for it.

Nope. If it did, he would never have actually done it. Alcohol would be more likely, although there were no charges, drug or alcohol.

People are brain dead, dumbed down, without spirit or God and they seek to fill these empty spaces with something, they seek to feel anything at all.

The paper said initial reports indicated that the shooting was accidental.

Well, that was cold. If it were me I'd be pretty upset at the notion that I only hit my foot by accident. Mind you, most of what I do hit when I shoot is by accident, but still...
