/what/ - ...

This afternoon I accidentally discharged my firearm into my bed, no excuse for it. I fucked up.

I immediately checked on everyone in the house and traced the trajectory and found the bullet to insure it didn't leave the house.

I then called the local police on the non emergency line to let them know not to be alarmed if they get any calls about it. The dispatch says a officer may want to talk, I give her my number we end the call.

Officers coming by about thirty minutes later, seem friendly and run my name/firearms to make sure I'm legal and my firearms aren't stolen. Perfectly normal right? Well they come back with a $1087 ticket for a felony discharging firearm within city limits.

What on earth is this? Will it stand up in court? its an obvious negligent discharge situation, why would they be such assholes?
