Not really weird news, but the intersection of a meme with disgusting reality.

ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla. -- A road rage incident in St. Augustine, Florida, led a man to allegedly pull out his AR-15 and aim it across a road at the other driver, authorities said.

Britt Meyer, 56, was arrested for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon without intent to kill.

Jamie Sanders and Katelin Daugherty were on their way to the beach when deputies say Meyer pointed a gun at them twice.

“He pulled it straight out and pointed it right at me, he’s sitting in the driver’s seat and pointed it right at me," said Sanders.

3. And gun nuts everywhere will tell this would never happen

If I had a dollar for every time a gun nutter told me this would never happen, I could buy a new car.

4. I understand how difficult it is to prove intent in court.

But goddammit, how can one say that a suspect produced, brandished, and aimed a weapon without any intent to kill?
