It was early in the morning, as some were traveling in the dark to the
deer
stand. They find a guy in the stand who does not belong there and
accost
him. Whether they fired or not, the scared guy shoots a couple. And
from
the news report. They radio, probably on FRS radios that one of the
people
has been shot. Several of the "hunters" are still at the cabin and jump
in
ATV's to help the shot person. They could have assumed it was a hunting
accident. They did not bring their guns along, as they were on a recue
mission for an injured person. They left the guns at the cabin. They
would
still be called hunters, as they were at their property to hunt deer,
and
you would call them hunters even if they were in camp. And nowhere is
there
any mention of drunkeness.

If the 8 were armed they would have executed him and not the other way
around.

If the eight were unarmed, how the heck were they "hunting"?

Get a bunch of guys staggering around in a beer buzz vs. one sober guy
scared
for his life. Evens the odds a bit. Then add the factor of some of your
buddies
getting killed when the intended victim of a cruel "joke" takes the
shot
seriously and begins firing back. If you aren't prepared to see people
going
down on both sides of you and you panic as a result, the odds are
evened a
bit
more.

All those missing weapons are likely squirreled away in the bushes
someplace.
How many people go hunting without a gun? Never heard of anybody doing
that,
except the stereotypical cheating husband. :-)

You're posting as if the facts were known here, Bill. All we really know
so far is what both sides have said about the tragedy. That's probably
all we'll ever know with any certainty, unless there is a genuine
confession from one or more of the participants.

"Unarmed hunters." What a crock.



And if you were still an incompetant reporter, you would still write stories
about people and call them hunters, even if they were in the local bar. It
is still an extremely biased comment by Mr. Gould. There is no report of
drinking, etc. But he has drunken hunters trying to execute a scared guy.
Biased to the max, and not data to support any of it!
