Liberals like to say that guns are only designed to kill people, which is not true, guns are designed to fire a projectile at a certain speed, just like flare guns, and as we see here, it’s the intentions of the user that matters:
According to the Chico Police Department, it started when a 40-year-old Chico man said he witnessed the teen attempting to break into vehicle.
The man told police he questioned the teen, who then pulled out a flare gun and fired it at him.
The flare missed the man but ignited a small fire that was quickly extinguished.
Around 2:45 p.m. police located the teen in the Chapmantown neighborhood where they arrested him.
He was booked into Juvenile Hall on charges of assault with a deadly weapon.
