I shot my brother in the belly with a rabbit pellet out of a BB gun at point blank range when I was 16. I was babysitting and he kept shooting them under his twin sister's door because he wouldn't let him play with her and a friend. I warned him twice, but by the third time, I'd had enough of my sister's annoying shrieks, so I ripped the gun out of his hands and shot him. He started screaming, "I'm telling!" It made a blood blister on his abdomen. I thought for sure I was in big trouble. He left my sister alone, and I confiscated the gun for the afternoon. That evening when my mom got home, my brother was waiting at the door to tell his tale of whoa. My mom looked at him and said, "You shouldn't have been annoying your sister."

I totally got away with it.
