Today I was in my room and heard a big thud. Thinking a bird had run into the window, I pulled up the blinds and saw this:
"That's no bird," I thought.
When I looked down, a lady and her daughter were target practicing in their back yard and her line of sight was pointed at my window. They're using a metal target and I think it ricocheted poorly. I walked out and said, "Hey, I think you just shot my window." She apologized and called the glass company and they're going to pay to have it fixed but like I say, irksome.
I really don't have a problem with BB guns as long as they're shot out away from kids, houses, and cars. Anyhoo. That's our 2nd BB gun incident in under a year, from 2 completely different families.

You've got to be kidding me! That's a bummer. At least your neighbors are nice enough to pay (especially when they're caught red-handed).
To illustrate how long I've lived in urban density - I am flabbergasted by this story. I can guarantee that will NEVER happen to my windows.
And to illustrate how I'm am not actually a the feminist I thought I was I was equally flabbergasted by the fact that it was a lady and her daughter.
Weird
Ca-razy! Epsecially that you've had two episodes so closely spaced. Though the experience would make a good bumper sticker.
I can't imagine why people think that BB guns are not shooting a firearm within city limits. I mean, you can't even fire a paintball gun within city limits, and, most of the time, they cause less damage than a BB gun... strange...
SERIOUSLY? You'd think your neighbors could have some common sense. At least they follow the rules to replace what they brake but how inconvenient.
