I really should not be making light of this because it's another inexcusable shooting, but who can ignore the headline?

A man fires a rifle for many years, and he goes to war. And afterward he turns the rifle in at the armory, and he believes he's finished with the rifle. But no matter what else he might do with his hands, love a woman, build a house, change his son's diaper; his hands remember the rifle.

Hope she is okay  :bible: :cross2: and I will pray for her recovery


I am dumbfounded by the ignorance that people have  - At what point does a person bypass common sense and some other persons safety just so that person can have bragging rights ?

Is killing a hog , deer , or turkey worth taking risks like this ?

The headline is a bit humorous.

I'm 100% with Shannon on this one.  I will never be able to understand how this can happen, so I won't wrack my brain trying now.  It happens far too often locally once deer season gets here, let alone in every other state around the country.

"When Egan heard rustling in the woods, he fired in her direction without first making visual confirmation with his intended target."     :z-winnersmiley:   >:(

I couldnt help but laugh at the story though I feel terrible because she is seriously injured. He should beaten within a inch of his life for doing that, but I can't help but think it may not have been accidental.

Turkey Trot

Life is too short to have a girlfriend that is easily mistaken for a wild hog.

(The consequences of pulling the trigger are too high to shoot without identifying the target, too.)

The headline is an attention grabber for sure--which I am sure was the intent.
