A man in Sweden was arrested after firing pistols out of his window at what he claims was a UFO.
The man, who has a history of mental illness, was convinced that aliens were coming to abduct him and claimed that he managed to blow up the UFO after hitting it with one of his shots. It took several hours for police to convince the man that he was safe.
The 23-year-old man, who has a history of mental illness, fired two pistol shots through his apartment window before opening fire from the window at what he imagined to be were alien invaders. According to the Dale-Demokraten newspaper, the gunman said one shot hit a UFO, causing it to explode.

There is nothing mentally unstable about having an interest in this subject. I'd say that it is a very pressing subject for this day and age. If ET visitation is a reality, it carries some pretty important implications for the human race and the history of this planet. Even if it isn't a reality, the question of ET intelligence somewhere out there is likewise important. Well said Boon... It's such a normal subject in this day and age anyway to be honest. 2 Christmases ago i had a conversation with my Granmother about it. (which was unusual for her) And it's also not unusual for it to come up i... [More]

Aliens are real! I've seen them, matter of fact I can see them just about whenever I want. I just go outside right after dark and look toward the swamp, its just west of the trailer park!

Harry Callahan: I know what you're thinking. "Did he fire six shots or only five?" Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement I kind of lost track myself. But being as this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and can blow a UFO outta the air with a single.... "CUT!!!"

Often, people are considered schizophrenic precisely because they really see what others may not choose to believe How can you come to the conclusion it happens "often" if you haven't seen most things people with schizophrenic claim to have seen?

Cool, I think I will enjoy it. I'm not going into it with any big expectations. I find that helps with the enjoyment factor in a lot of movies. Same here, boon. Its pretty much what I expected, lots of fun.

I love the Make my day Shot to the head ,only problem is which head do you aim at? ET may just be waiting to Invade us at any time ! Time waits for no one and No one has time for ET any more. Keep it on the plate this week and eat all you take ! Love this clip dont you ?

*LOL* he must be mentally ill if he thinks you could shoot down a superior technology with a pistol! As any writer knows, the difference between a .44 Magnum pistol and a tactical nuke can easily be overcome by handloading.
