I think celebratory gunfire (firing straight up into the air) is more common in the inner cities than out in MAGA territory, so you probably need to add a "homie" or something in there.

You are probably right there, and I still don't see the point in it but there we are anyhow.

Me either. Everything comes down somewhere.

Terminal velocity

See above. Terminal velocity for many rounds is still capable of causing injury or death, and that's only for rounds fired at a steep enough angle. Rounds fired non-vertically will impact with greater velocity.

So it can be terminal.

Ah I see, that was a joke.

MAGAs aren’t going to waste the ammunition. Have you seen how much they cost?

They also usually have places to go with proper back stops.
