Reading the story will reveal that the shoot-ee was at fault, going

Anyone with a loaded gun in his or her hand is responsible for what
happens when that gun is discharged. It is absolutely amazing that no
matter *what* Cheney or Bush do wrong, millions will line up to give them
a pass.

Amazing, and scary.


No, crap happens, and the guy hit may not have been where he was expected to
be. Years ago, we were hunting pheasants, and a long line of hunters across
the field. We knew not to shoot right or left. Either straight ahead or go
over the top and shoot behind us. I followed a bird over my head and going
to shoot, and an older gentleman had not said anything about being tired to
anyone, and dropped behind us. Could have been a bad situation. Was 90%
the guy behinds fault. In a field you expect the others to follow the
rules.
