Pan... if it was anyone else who had done this, I find it highly unlikely that any of us would even be talking about it...
The only reason it is newsworthy, the only reason it is even remotely funny is simply because it was the VP of the US that did it.
Tragedy is the wellspring of comedy. Political tragedy only moreso. If pressed, most would agree that they are concerned for the wellfare of anyone who has been shot. The fact that this guy seems to be in stable condition seems to say that, he's going to be OK. These sorts of accidents happen all the time. I'm not going to lose sleep over it.
Besides, the VP doesn't need to be in jail. If the DA needs to find him, he know where to go. It isn't like Cheney can dissappear without a trace.
