any problem can be solved with enough violence. you just have to know what kind of violence to apply.
in this case rather then shooting lead, he should have been shooting water.
duh.
Sounds to me like he solved the problem by shooting at it.
He shot, police and firemen came, fire got put out.

That's a very... around way to deal with this particular problem.
And it wouldn't work in the chest pain case.
Assuming somebody heard the shot, he'd probably pass out bleeding and wake up in the hospital... so even that might work.
Only if he's a really bad shot and/or fails at basic human anatomy.

The fact that he wanted to cure himself by shooting the pain kind of confirms the latter.
Then again, a point-blank shot to the heart with any reasonable caliber will probably put a permanent end to chest pains right quick, so maybe he knew what he was onto after all.

1I'll grant that anatomy can include the functions of organs, but it's main meaning is how things go together, with the functions only being a sometimes-thing.

Only one extra step from the norm really.
Normal person : House is on fire > Find Phone, Dial 911
This guy: House is on fire > Start shooting, someone else dials 911
He found the easy and fun way.
It's a parody article. The author apparently writes these for the local paper on a regular basis.
That said, it's very telling in that I initially believed it, as do most people I know. It should be something so ridiculous as to be unbelievable, but as it turns out... not so much.

Isn't that dangerous?
After all, if one finds an article in a newspaper, rather than a tabloid or a humor magazine, one will normally assume it is true.
Hence, this could lead to some people incorporating false statements in their world model.
When logic is applied to statements, some of which are false, inaccurate conclusions can result. These conclusions can depart from reality to a much greater extent than the initial false statement. In fact, it has been proven mathematically that any false statement implies the truth of all other false statements.
Therefore, if one prints a parody article in the local newspaper, there is a potential for people driving to work the next morning to have come to the erroneous conclusion that traffic is to stop on green, and go on red, or that cars are now to drive on the left-hand side of the road.
Fortunately, however, I believe the degree to which this is a risk is very minimal.
What I find more amusing is that so many of us were willing to believe it's true.
oh my god everybody thought that was real. lmao!!! There are people like that here though.
If there are people like that, doesn't that mean that it is real, even if the article was meant to be humorous?
Nobody would've believed it to be real unless they had the feeling that it were in the realm of possibility.
