Your Morning Irony

Not as good as Coffee, but here it is:

North Carolina Senator R.C. Soles has been indicted for shooting Kyle Blackburn. A grand jury has indicted R.C. Soles for assault with a deadly weapon inflicting serious bodily injury, a felony charge which carries a maximum sentence of 31 months in prison. R.C. Soles, 74, shot Kyle Blackburn, a 22-year-old man, in the leg at Soles’ house; R.C. Soles claims he was acting in self-defense, and that Kyle Blackburn was trying to break into the house.

R.C. Soles, a Democrat and North Carolina’s longest-serving senator, was known for being a gun-control advocate.

Yep, again not a grown-up among them!

**Update** Thirdpower says below:
“I keep reading he’s ‘known for being a gun control advocate’ but have yet to see anything showing what gun control he advocated.

He was A rated and endorsed by the NRA in ’08.”

He’s still not a grown-up, but maybe he might not be as “Anti-Gun” as the report says.
