Cure Worse Than Malady

.
An uncle was drinking with his nephew on Saturday night when the nephew developed hiccups. The uncle, a security guard, decided to scare him to get rid of the hiccups, so he pointed his revolver at his nephew. What could possibly go wrong?

The gun went off, killing the nephew. The distraught uncle ran outside and shot himself in the head, killing himself.

This happened in Bogota, Colombia, where booze is just another drug of choice.

The hiccups were cured.

    That's the best argument I've ever heard for gun control!

    Plus, doesn't everyone know that swallowing a dry teaspoon of sugar cures the hiccups every time?
