One of the neighbors crashed the party - older guy, in his 30's. He was asked to leave as it was a high school spring break party.
He refused to leave. A couple of guys tried to "escort him" out the door. He pulled a guy and pointed it at these 2 guys. One of the guys, whom I always pictured as a loser trouble maker, grabs the gun and points it away from his buddy. Pretty brave of him.
Nevertheless, the gun was pointed in many directions in the ensuing scuffle. At one point, right at me, I was on the other side of the pool table. You learn then, whether you are a freezer or a flea-er. I'm a freezer. Could not move.
Gun goes off, shoots innocent bystander in the back and is paralyzed from the waist down. His wish was to walk at graduation, but that never happened. He did receive a standing O when he rolled up in his wheel chair. He missed the whole spring quarter, but they gave him his diploma anyway.
Moral - underage drinking is dangerous.

I thought the moral was that everyone over 30 is creepy and weird. BTW, there is a misplaced "guy" instead of "gun" in your story that made it a little confusing at first, so if you are a fan of the edit, that might be worthwhile...
I've always suspected that I would freeze and/or be unable to make any noise come out in a panic. Luckily I've never tested it other than in my nightmares.
So, anyone heard any good jokes lately?
