Xbox is bullet-proof

Mr. Hyde

Irate Marylander shoots his roommates' console, but the 9mm round fails to penetrate its casing.
When called to investigate a shooting last Friday night, police in Anne Arundel County, Maryland found an unlikely culprit--an Xbox.
The Baltimore Sun reports that 34-year old Robert Preston Kersey had grown enraged by his roommates constantly playing their Xbox at high volume. According to the police report, Kersey emerged from his bedroom at 2 a.m. brandishing an automatic pistol. Rather than shoot his roommates, Kersey took aim at the offending Xbox and fired a single shot at the console. While the bullet's impact disabled the Xbox, its thick plastic casing deflected the 9mm round, which ricocheted away harmlessly.
Other than the Xbox, no injuries resulted from the incident. Kersey was later booked on two counts of reckless endangerment and one count of destruction of property.



Maybe it was just a weak weapon.

How pissed off would you be if that happened? Decide to finish an X-Box off once and for all so you can regain your sanity, take a gun to it...and it doesn't do anything to it.

That is a great, great story.
