How many hunters are there on here

[BonerBoy]

hunters, please answer these questions:

a) have you ever shot another human in a non-combat situation?

b) have you ever seen a hunter shoot another hunter?

c) ever known someone who shot or got shot?

Basically what I would like to know is, FROM A HUNTING STANDPOINT, is Dick Cheney a complete idiot, or could it have happened to anyone?

Also, how common is it to go ahead and disregard the laws and go shoot whatever you want without buying a license?

On the other hand, Cheney is clearly a tool

 

[jack sparrow]

a) No
b) No
c) Knew a dude who shot another dude in the foot with a .22

FROM A HUNTING STANDPOINT, I don't believe in accidents. If your not familiar with gun safety, then you shouldn't be out there. I don't rifle hunt anymore, bow hunting only for me.

I hardly think something that happened over the weekend qualifies for "last week"

Also, I just saw the most detailed story about it in the press.

Jack--what about the license?

I always get a license. The DNR will make you pay dearly for poaching.

First off you need a licence, I was unaware that he didnt have a licence. Second, hunting accidents happen all the time, but they happen when someone is not being as careful as they should be. If the report is correct, that Cheney didnt know the other man was approaching him from behind, then it is mostly his fault for not making everyone aware of where he was at the time. But, that still is Cheney's fault for not knowing the whereabouts of every hunter that he is with. Pretty much, no matter what happened, Cheney wasnt being as careful as he should have been and is definately responsible for the mistake.

No to all 3

Accidents can be caused by either the Shooter or the person Shot.

I hunt MILFS...does this count?

No to all 3

On a flushing hunt, never move to the outside of the two people who border the hunt. Shooting a shotgun is a lot different than a rifle, the barrel obstructs more of the view as the sights aren't raised. That being said, all people should be aware of everyone in the party.

Wow.

I can't believe this thread hasn't turned into some vitriol-packed political debate.

Perhaps cos the thread title only atracts real hunters?

Anyways, good info.

So basically, compared to advocating the invasion of a sovereign nation for spurious reasons, this is peanuts.

 

[Devastation]

no
no
yes

and cheney had a license. he didn't have a $7 bird stamp which i'm positive he'd've known he needed

I was once threatened by a wildlife officer with confiscation of my Gun, Truck and first born child when I was once busted for Dove hunting without a current license...

I wonder if they did the same thing to Dickie ?

were you VPOTUS at the time?

I got shot on my left side while bird hunting kinda the same situation. It was also an accident that was 11 years ago and I still have bird shot in my arm. I made it a point not to hunt with that dude again.

 

[monteman]

1) no
2) no
3) yes, my uncle got shot once while turkey hunting because the shooter didn't identify his target; my uncle was doing the calling. The f**cker just jumped up and ran to leave him there.

as far as the Chaney thing, I havn't really followed it, I will say that all people in the party should make known where they to the rest of the party at all times. That being said, if you are carrying a gun, you are responsible to know at least where your immediate party members are, and also to identify your target. As for the liscence, you should always have a valid liscence for what you are hunting.
