    Report it?

    Guns are expensive I would have had something to shoot for free next time I went to the range.

    Man, I would never keep or use a gun that I found. No idea where the fuck it came from or what it had been used for, hand that shit over to the coppers and let them deal with it.

    The year or so old packed meat is also weird.

    I don't know which is worse: a loaded gun packed with meat, or meat from a year and a half ago.

    Also, in before "Roswell? Must mean ALIENS!"

    It's a message from the aliens. They're putting guns in food because the want us to shoot ourselves so they can take our cows.

    I am also disturbed, but not surprised....

    I found cheese in a supermarket that was about a year past its best before date. Returned it and was told that it's ok to sell because it's just a "best before" date....so, technically it can still be eaten without the expectation of ill effects. Technically legal, still gross....

    Can it be cooked straight away or does it need to be defrosted first?

    Anyway, that is rather random. Not every day you find a gun in a supermarket.

    Shame the guy wiped the fingerprints. I have to wonder if this thing is a murder weapon somebody hid. Who's missing in Greeley?

    My retired father-in-law decided to get a job at Walmart just so he had something to do. They put him in the dairy department. He said you wouldn't believe the stuff they put out on the shelf (he saw somebody stocking 9 month old cheese without a second thought). He only lasted 2 weeks before he got fed up with the place and quit. And, he doesn't buy groceries from Walmart anymore!

    I work around airline maintenance and we get some of the same thing. Somewhere along the lines, people hide drugs inside the sidewalls or lavatory panels smuggling them to God-knows-where, but then the plane gets rerouted. Some of the guys I work with found about 4-5 kg of cocaine in a lavatory, once. I hate to think of what happened to the guy that missed THAT pickup!

    What sucks is that whenever a find is made like that, the cops are called in and they have to do a full sweep of the aircraft. It can be frustrating when you're trying to get an aircraft back in service.

    So when a piece of meat expires, it turns into a handgun?

    *kills cow and waits*

    Tank!

    Would the fingerprints, if any, still have been there though if the guy didn't clean it?

    Didn't you know? To kill someone in cold blood, the gun's gotta be frozen.
