What were the redneck's last words?

"Hey y'all! Watch this!"

A fellow who used to live here was very meticulous when it came to checking his guns to see if they were empty, and getting them ready to clean.

He came home one day from a hunting, or shooting trip, I don't remember which one. He sat down in his living room, checked his gun - which included sticking his finger in the breech to make sure it was clear. All seemed to be okay and he proceeded to clean his gun.

Something got missed somewhere, and in the continued process of cleaning his gun, it went off. The shot went through his living room wall. He and his wife went into the next room to check on any damage that might have occurred, due to the errant shot. Sure enough, he had killed the piano.

A local law enforcement officer was returning from patrol one day, when an antelope decided to cross the highway. Right in front of the officer, of course.

The officer swerved to miss the antelope, and ended up taking out a fence post instead. His air bag had deployed, but had failed to deflate, and the officer struggled to get out of his cruiser.

The officer eventually reached for his weapon, and shot the airbag. Unfortunately, his own arm was on the other side of the air bag.
