"That was the first time I had ever fired that gun," he said.

Always, always, always familiarize yourself with a firearm.

In the video he was quoted as saying he had owned and shot guns for years, just never shot AT someone. Perhaps in this article he was misquoted, or perhaps while he had never fired that particular gun, with that serial number, he had fired one or more just like it.

The store owner stated very clearly on the Fox tape that it was the ‘first time he’d had to shoot at someone’.

The posted article is from the AP. Tough call, storeowner, AP, storeowner, AP.....NOT!

The posted article has been filtered through the ASSociated Press, any semblance to the truth is accidental and totally unintentional especially in reference to whites, Christians, conservatives, guns, the Constitution, the US flag, and/or servicemen and women. The ASSociated Press regrets any inconvenience caused by the indiscriminate but purely accidental disemination of facts.

Ah, media filtering strikes again.
