I will agree with that.
In either hunting or self-defense, you never shoot to wound. Although a shot in the ass can kill if you hit a femoral artery. Dad was lucky.
In this case I would say the boy was hunting so he should never have taken the shot until he had a sure kill shot on his target.
Dad didn’t teach him well enough . . .
We got a kid like that here. He got caught with a kill list, and tried to buy a gun off of Craig’s List. Got reported to the authorities.
The kid is going to PUBLIC SCHOOL, where he is taught in classrooms where it is just him and the teacher.
Kid you not.
No, the kid has something wrong with him, and should be locked up like a zoo animal.
