Moron of the Day: Points laser at police helo, cops come, find felon in posession of firearms

I have a Moron of the Day award to give out.

Rodger Dean Smith of Orange County, Florida, chose to point a laser at an Orange County Sheriff's Office (OCSO) helicopter on April 3, 2019.

Within moments, OCSO deputies were at his door.

Discovering that he is a convicted felon for a theft case in the early 1990s, the police searched his house, finding the laser and 12 guns and hundreds of rounds of ammunition.

Smith is now facing 12 counts of possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, 1 count of possession of ammunition by a felon, 1 count of assault on a law enforcement officer, 1 count of pointing a laser at a driver or pilot, and 1 count of possession of cannabis < 20 grams.

So I give you:

Rodger Dean Smith, Moron of the Day

"Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24

He’ll have a cool story to tell to his prison buddies. A dumbazz no doubt, serves him well.

They tend to accumulate here. They are southbound, and this is as far as they can go. Geography and stuff. There is a huge concentration of them in Key West, which is as far south as you can go and still be in the U.S.A.

Please. He isn't a "retard." That term is offensive to some folks.

He's a "helmet wearing grade school paste eater."

So Florida needs a huge dose of Liquid Plumber. Let's get this back-up flushed down to Cuba.

Hey guys, full disclosure: I am a Florida native.

Do they know how he got his weapons?? Already owned them, or bought FTF w/o a NICS check.

Is the black tube on the far right a suppressor? If so, why wasn't he charged for that?
But who's counting.

And why are the cops all grinning (except Don Rickles on the left)?
