People, I cannot stress this enough: DO NOT FIRE GUNS INTO THE AIR.
Yes, the bullet will go up. Yes, at some point, its velocity will reach zero. But after that, it will fall back to Earth, and the effect of acceleration due to gravity will make sure it is travelling very, very fast on its return trip. Just like that penny thrown off the CN tower, a bullet falling from a thousand feet is going to hurt.

"Bitches, that's harrassment."
COLLECTED WISDOM:
What I've noticed over the past week:
1. Plans with the word "pact" in them are usually bad ideas.
2. Innocence is just another term for naivete, and not desirable in the least past the age of ten.
3. You should never ask for a trial by jury. Remember, you're not being tried by a jury of your peers, you're being tried by a jury of people too stupid to figure out how to get out of jury duty.
