Man Shoots Self In Manhood With Flare Gun

"Authorities in Florida said a man was hospitalized with burn wounds after accidentally shooting himself in the groin with a flare gun.

Jorge Perez told deputies he had loaded the flare gun and set it down Sunday. He later picked it up and, forgetting he had loaded it, fired it at the ground."


A flare gun launches flares; it is typically used for distress signaling, at sea or from the ground to aircraft.

Perez should have stepped outside and shot the flare gun again, to signal to police that he was in distress with burning genitals.

Perez is only 23, and hopefully he will recover from the burns to his genital area, get married and become a father.

But if he is unable to father children after his accident, would it really be such a bad thing? We don't need little Perez twins blinding each other with cap guns.
