I agree 100% that there is a BIG difference between random gunfire and shooting a rat. But not everyone is as sophisticated and knowledgeable as you. So maybe in the interest of educating the idiots out there, how about telling them how to tell the difference between a:
1- Random Gunfire
2- Shooting at a rat
3- Shooting a person.

To my ears they all seem to sound exactly the same, but it's clear you have some secret inside knowledge that the sound gunfire makes when shooting at a rat is distinctly different than other uses and people who can’t tell the difference are ignorant. I assume that as the bullet exits the barrel it sees its target and changes it's sound so people know it's not a random or a criminal act but a neighbor shooting at rats. Or maybe it sends out some electronic signal that alerts those with the proper “Bullet Sound Intended Purpose X-100 Decoder” about its intentions. (Telling us where to buy one would be a big plus)

You have to excuse those of us who are audio challenged and can’t tell the difference between a bullet fired for rat extermination and a bullet fired for other purposes. So please educate us.

Thanks.
