OK, sorry. Let me re-phrase. If you fire a gun into the air and the bullet hits, say, someone in an apartment building before its spent, then yes it's dangerous. However, a bullet fired straight up will eventually come down in free-fall. In free-fall, a bullet might sting you if it hit you in the head, or it might hurt even hurt you if you were looking up and it hit you in the eye. But, a bullet in free-fall poses virtually no real risk of harm.
