Some people are just cuckoo and I hope the old bastard goes to jail for this.

JONESBORO, Ga. — Three people are in custody after police say a neighbor opened fire because a child threw a football on his lawn.
Channel 2's Tom Jones was there when all three of the neighbors went before a Clayton County judge Friday.
While police said the case is about a football on one neighbor's grass, the neighbors told Jones this is about so much more.
Anthony Ealy, 49, said he loves his grass and hates when anyone walks on it.
His wife told Jones the neighbors' children keep doing just that.
"He's asked them several times please don't walk across my property. So he just went ahead and put up some barbed wire," Ealy's wife said, who did not give her first name.
Clayton County police said Ealy became so upset Thursday he pulled out a gun and fired a shot.
Police arrested Ealy after they said he hit his neighbor and his wife after they came out and complained about him threatening the children.
