Shooting is illegal in some situations all the time. Some of these circumstances include:

  1. Shooting at a person, whether any bullet hits the person or not, is typically illegal (except in some situations). Killing a human by firearm is always illegal, though the law allows a person to protect themselves.
  2. Shooting in the direction of homes, and within a specified number of feet from houses.
  3. Discharging a firearm in certain areas of a city or town.
  4. Carrying or Firing a weapon on the grounds of or inside certain institutions, such as schools, hospitals, medical facilities, etc.
  5. Using a gun to threaten or terrorize anyone ("brandishing a gun"), even if it is never fired.

These are just a handful of situations.
