Murder by silverware would rise 1000%. We can't have that. Totally unacceptable. I'll take a bullet wound over a fork to the eye any day.

having been shot before, I can say I would rather be shot in the leg a 2nd time than take a fork in the eye.


7 months of surgery, recovery and rebilitation vs never being able to see out of that eye again. proper choice for me.
