Same state that legalized marijuana. Coincidence? I think not. ;-)

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

Or a research grant.

I’ve got arthritis in my feet and its a horror show.

Mine's in my hips. I suppose there's no "good" place to have it.

Shoot! (no pun intended). Pounding a pencil through your foot would do more damage than the .22.

What a wimp!

Family rumor has it that someone in our family did this back in the 30’s. Got drunk and shot off a toe.

In Arizona it feels like voting for McCain or Flake.

OK, there was a movie in the late 60’s, anti Vietnam war, where it showed a guy doing this very thing to avoid the draft.

It was a documentary, not actors. 22 caliber rifle shot. Yes the pain was more than anticipated.

Enough people do this sort of thing by error or simple clumsiness, why would anybody do it on purpose?

If you want to know what some situation may feel like, look to the experience of others who have undergone the agony, and resolve to learn from THEIR acts and the consequences.

Obviously, this person lacks, in very large measure, the capability of critical thinking.

Some 95% of the personal woe in this world is self induced.

This sort of thing doesn't surprise me from a state that would legalize weed. It is in fact, a great metaphor for what the rest of the state did.

I knew a guy who did this to avoid being drafted. I guess he didn’t have bus fare to Canada

He should have done more research, to see how it feels going through his temples.
