This duck hunting protester in Australia was wading through a duck hunt in order to save hit ducks. She was then accidentally shot in the face.
A duck protestor in Australia was wading through a duck hunt attempting to save the ducks that were shot down.
A shot at a low-flying duck resulted in her accidental shooting.
Back in March of 2011, these bold anti-hunters decided to interfere in a duck hunt in Australia.
A 14-year-old duck hunter took a shot at a low-flying duck and shotgun pellets hit this anti-hunter in the face. Julia Symons was hit by at least seven shotgun pellets.
Around 150 protesters with the Coalition Against Duck Hunting were out to interfere with the legal duck hunt and rescue shot ducks. The woman who was shot was wading in waist-deep water at the time of the accident.
No charges were filed in this case.
Idiots.
She forgot to duck.
Not shades of Chaney. This was a moron intentionally walking into the line of fire trying to stop it. MORON.
That was quick.
this hapless numbskull ranks several categories below that of mere moron.
Sadly it wasnt a BIG GAME HUNT
So this idiot is trying to be Elmer Fudd?
Let me guess. The protesters weren’t wearing safety vests either, right?
That barely qualifies as a paper cut and she needed a Wammmbulance?
Nobody yelled Duck, either.
7 pellets to the face
Shooter appears to be a 14 y/o boy
Wading in front of a line of duck hunters. The stupidity is strong in this one. Feel bad for the young man - shoulders up lad. Not your fault.
Do you think that this moron learned anything? She got off VERY lucky.
Blood coming out her “whatever”.
hope it did not put this kids eye out.
Then one day on the interstate
They suddenly lose control
They swerve to miss a baby duck
They’re squashed beneath a produce truck
But they drove with pride...
And as the crowds drive past a little flat car
You know they saved a lot of gas
But they didnt get far
In a Yugo
And as they’re trapped inside
At a used car lot on the other side of town
A liberal guy and a liberal gal
Buy a Yugo....
And they drive with pride...
This was from 2011... my assumption is that after that the anti-hunters decided this was not a smart way to save ducks. She is very lucky that none of the tiny birdshot pellets hit her in the eye.
