US woman goes on highway shooting spree: There were many things American officials were gearing up to face amid the solar eclipse - traffic jams, accidents, eye injuries and more. But this one definitely wasn’t on their list.

In a bizarre incident, a woman suddenly shot at two drivers on a Florida interstate and claimed that she was asked by “God” to do so via the solar eclipse, as per the police.

Strangely, the Sunshine State was not even close to the path of totality and hence, was supposed to be the least affected by the astronomical phenomenon.

    When I was in high school in the late 00s it was the worst kept secret in the world that 75% of the trucks in the school parking lot had guns in them. Mostly shotguns since many of us would hunt before school and if we didn’t get a deer that morning we’d go into school but if we did we’d skip that day. Now I’ve moved to a city in my adulthood but I still see guns near daily, either on our regular beat cops or by people just open carrying everywhere since my state allows open carry
