I said it then, I'll say it now..

If your son, dad, brother, wife, etc shoots another person in the woods, he/she is a fricking moron criminal and should be prosecuted as at least a manslaughter case.

There is NO, not one single reason why someone should shoot at something they aren't sure of. A person looks absolutely nothing like a deer!

If you shoot into a bush and kill a Bald Eagle, you are prosecuted to the full extent of the law. Why is it less and considered an accident if it's a human?
An accident is when your gun goes off when you didn't plan on it! Not when you squeeze the trigger intentionally.

It's morons like this that give guns/hunting a bad name. And if they aren't adults, then the parents should get hammered for giving the gun to a moron! This shite can't keep happening!

I know these are decent people, but a gun should be treated like a car.....you operate it recklessly and cause a death, you are punished by the law.

If accidental, this is not the law.

Shooter was obviously wrong. No one disagrees with that. Just recognize there is a distinction, morally and legally, between intentional and unintentional acts.

I'll go on record as saying if this happens to anyone close to me......I will retaliate
Absolutely no excuse for this....


Slip, trip fall is an accident or even someone being concealed beyond your intended target....


Mistaken for game......shooter should not be hunting



I jumped my kids shat the other day for not wearing orange walking out from a duck hunt...road is property line other side of road heavy deer/hog hunting

Investigators say Kennedy was not wearing protective orange hunting gear. Newman says Kennedy's vest was found on a nearby hunting stand.

Same can be said about people deer hunting and not wearing orange.
