    Well if you’re aiming up toward a camera on a pole, and miss, there’s a 100% chance it hits something else behind it. That being a person is low, but that’s not the only irresponsible thing to hit with a bullet.

    Also, there are 30-40 deaths every year from inadvertent falling bullets from shooting up into the air.

      I’m not defending shooting into the air, I’m just disputing the “extremely high likelihood” that you will hit a person.

        I mean, if you just gloss over half of what I said sure.

        You’re not disputing anything because that’s not what I said.

        I said you have an extremely high likelihood of hitting “something or someone” behind it.

        Which is absolutely true.
