Wait, a non muslin can go on a shooting rampage in America? How unusual…

@karen marie: Again, clean it out good first prior to applying adhesive. I would not recommend using a hot glue gun. I'd also agree that if it's a "Hot Fuzz"- level gardening shears accident, then a real bandage, stitches, or advanced life support as may be needed would be better.

@Prommie: I did once and I do not recommend it at all!

I cut a finger with garden shears, went to my PCP to see if I needed stitches. After charging me $50 for a non-preventive care visit, the doctor — who stood in her office doorway listening as I explained why I was there and that I wasn’t sure whether I could afford to part with said $50 — said, “Sure, you could probably use a couple stitches but I do not have the facilities to do that here.” (WTF?) She suggested I superglue it, so I did.

Within 24 hours I had a nice infection going. It took another 12 hours before I could reopen the wound to get it cleaned out. Needless to say, I didn’t bother going back to my PCP.

If your cut is bad enough to need stitches, put a butterfly on it, but don’t glue it!

As for the shooting in Miami, I’d be surprised if it didn’t start a lot of shrieking about how this kind of thing wouldn’t happen if we had closed borders.

Gah.

I seem to recall more mass shootings when I was a little kid, or maybe I’m just desensitzed now.

In the ’80s it seemed like someone marched into a Post Office or a McDonalds weekly and blew everyone away.

I always preferred A&W for that reason–great root beer and no one else ever came in there.

@Prommie: I do that a lot. Just clean it up before.

@Prommie: Don't doctors do it all the time? Can't be that difficult.
