Most of us "gun nuts" don't buy guns with the hope of getting to shoot
another human being. The exception being when another human being is
intending to cause me or my loved ones great bodily harm.

Anybody who buys a gun HOPING to shoot people is the kind of person
that shouldn't get a gun in the first place, and probably should be
under some sort of observation.

I generally get great enjoyment shooting paper targets at the gun
range, and when I'm lucky, Bambi in the woods.


I sure hope you looked at the link. I wouldn't mind taking part in the shooting that's being
portrayed!

I haven't been hunting for anything in a long time. Grew up on rabbit and squirrel. Never shot a
bambi, but not because I haven't been in the woods looking. Last time I went deer hunting was on a
private, lumber company owned patch of woods in mid-Virginia. A buddy and I walked into the area and
set up in the dark. When it got light enough to see, I could see three more folks with orange caps
and vests sitting behind trees waiting for bambi to show. I 'chickened out'. Went back to the car
and climbed into the back seat to take a nap. About a half hour later my buddy joined me. Scary.

Perhaps you didn't comprehend the situation. When going into the woods it was dark. Neither of us
expected the woods to be that filled with other hunters, which is why we left. I suppose I should
have been more precise in my description to help you understand.

Are you trying to be called 'dummy' some more with that spelling of 'America'? How stupid would I
look if I called you an 'anadian?

There is an average of less than one hundred cases per year across the
entire nation of hunting-related shootings of people. That's
intentional AND accidental incidents.

The number of people who get shot by (legitimate) hunters over the
course of a year is FAR less than the number of people shot in most
large cities in America.

And if you look at the demographics of those who are doing the
shooting in the cities and those who are hunting (legitimately), you'll
see that you're FAR safer walking around in the woods during hunting
season than you are walking down an urban street at dusk.

All true. Couple that with the fact that the American hunter has a far better knowledge of guns and far more hand-on experience than his Canadian counterpart, and those American woods are ever a better place to be!

That's a much smaller number than I would have guessed. An old high
school classmate of mine was killed in a hunting crossfire incident
back in the '60s or '70s.

Actually, I was a little surprised at the number myself when I heard
it during a Wisconsin DNR presentation on changes in some of the rules.
(It used to be that just leaning a loaded rifle against your truck
while you eat a sandwich on your tailgate could get you a citation for
transporting a loaded weapon...)

I know there are exceptions to the rule, but every hunter I've gone
out with has always been hyper-sensitive to where everyone else is. I
don't have a specific number to quote, but I would imagine that a lot of
the accidental shootings are caused by people not realizing how far a
shotgun slug or a rifle bullet can actually go.

That was the way I was raised. Each hunter in a group will be in a
specified space and have a specified area of fire. We were always to
poor to hunt over dogs so when we worked a field each guy would be
behind the next guy's "weak" side. It is pretty hard for a right
handed shooter to shoot something off of his right shoulder. (station
6 low house is usually the hardest skeet shot if you line up for the
double) That is why I wondered exactly how Cheney shot that guy he was
hunting with.
Somebody was out of position and the way I heard it, the guy was the
one who got shot.

I think most shotgun hunting accidents are more a hunter not paying
attention to the line of hunters on a drive. Years ago, a hunter in our
group nearly got shot on a pheasant drive. He dropped 10 yards back of the
line.

Mostly it is Eastern Canadians that are anti firearm. Out west, they
dislike the eastern provinces, as they are leaches on the other taxpayers.
