BRECKENRIDGE, Colo. (AP) - A Colorado man who claimed he was trying to defend himself from a mugger when he shot himself in the groin has been convicted of illegal discharge of a firearm. Investigators said there was no evidence to substantiate David Leroy Blurton's self-defense claim and jurors convicted the 50-year-old on Wednesday. The shooting happened at the parking lot of a grocery store in Dillon, Colo., on May 2009. Prosecutors say Blurton had been drinking.

You would think shooting himself in the groin would be considered enough punishment! They should have just laughed and said, "Yeah, OK, I think you learned your lesson."

Idiot was probably "gang-banger-holstering" his piece in his waistband.

I have no pity for any moron who shoots themselves, because it means you obviously never paid attention to the rules for safe gun ownership. If you are gonna carry or even OWN a gun of any sort, learn to have respect for this DEADLY weapon, and learn how to handle it SAFELY! Too bad he didn't blow his nuts clean off....
