4/20

I see my cousin finally getting his life back on track today.  A few years ago he was out with his friends driving around.  They were shooting at signs with their air soft guns from the car.  Apparently somewhere along the way something went very wrong and my cousin ended up shooting a guy on a motorcycle.  He said it was an accident, but come on, how do you accidentally shoot someone?  He obviously had to of seen the guy coming down the road and why were they driving around shooting things in the first place, did they not think anything bad would happen?  The man on the motorcycle turned out to be an off duty cop who call his friends.  The police chased the car down and arrested my cousin and his friends.  He's had this incident follow him for the last three years and had to go to court several times, was put on house arrest then diversion, had to take classes, and do community service.  He is also in the army and was in a lot of trouble with them when they found out.  Today though marks the 3 year anniversary and since he did everything he was asked to do it is taken off his record.   I hope he's learned a lot from this situation.  It definitely taught me to think about the consequences of my actions.
