A man taking his trash to an apartment dumpster was shot and killed after he slipped while walking and the gun he was carrying went off accidentally, according to San Antonio police.

    I definitely need a gun to take out my trash. You never know when trash-monsters might jump out of the dumpster and then what.

      Have you been to Texas? There are trash monsters everywhere around here!

      I talk shit, but I would absolutely have a firearm some places when taking out the trash. We’ve got a crazy feral hog problem some places. I’ve been trapped in a building by them. A friend got charged heading to his car by a pack of them. Another friend had his driver’s side door fucked up by one while stopped at a stop sign. They will absolutely fuck you up.

      Of course none of this was in San Antonio, it was all in rural Texas. I have no idea whether they’re out there causing havoc.

      @thefartographer@lemm.ee care to weigh in? How bad is it out there?

      I can think of a few realistic situations where someone might. Bears, geese, waterbears, meese, gators, hell you might even run into an acorn. Gotta stay safe out there.
