MIAMI (Reuters) - Fed up with his troublesome car, a Florida man fired five rounds from a semi-automatic pistol into the hood of the 1994 Chrysler LeBaron.

"I'm putting my car out of its misery," 64-year-old John McGivney said after the incident outside an apartment building in Lauderdale-By-The-Sea, according to a police report that listed the car as "deceased."

McGivney surrendered to police, was jailed on a firearms charge on Friday and released on bond a day later. He told them the car had been giving him trouble for years.

"I think every guy in the universe has wanted to do it," the South Florida Sun-Sentinel on Wednesday quoted McGivney as saying. "It was worth every damn minute in that jail."

Who woulda thunk that this happened in Floriduh

.
I've had a few cars I needed to shoot.
Most notably a Ford Fiero.

I've always thought that a cell phone toss would be great.
Collect a bunch of old phones so people could slam em into a wall or have a football field rug so you could dance and spike it. I'm sure people would pay to do it.

for those that know me ... i have been a proponent of the installation of a .50cal mini-gun on my truck ... for that exact purpose ... shooting cars.

Namely ones that refuse to show common courtesy and respect of the rules of the road.

This made me LOL.

I've had quite a few cars go belly up, albeit from natural causes, rather than vehicular euthanasia.
