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


It is NOT unintentional! He aimed and intentionally pulled the trigger. He didn't drop his gun and it went off accidentally.

I don't care if you see a 12 point clearly yet it walks behind a bush, you CANNOT shoot blindly into the bush not knowing what's behind it. If you do, you are responsible for what you kill, even if it's human.....that would be homicide, period

It was an intentional act, but no intent has been shown, as of yet, to kill someone.

Here is another scenario: I am driving and turn in front of someone. That person dies. Should I have seen them coming, probably. Did I see them? No. Maybe I should have taken another second to look. Maybe I shouldn't have been in such a hurry. I intentionally put my foot on the accelerator. However, in the end, I did not intend to kill them. Am I a murderer? Or was a negligent? There are lot of ways for us to accidentally kill our fellow man.


All that being said, if you are shooting at an unknown, you don't need to be hunting.
