I use only low-powered .308 Browning rifles. Much safer than these deadly high powered ones.

I thought the Constitution said something about arming bears, not dogs.

As a VEGAN, too bad he didn’t shoot him a little higher.

[rfp1234]

Did the dog ‘bump’ or ‘hump’ the gun?

[bgill]

The dog is 25 years old?

[muir_redwoods]

So suddenly my .308 is a high-powered rifle? Who knew?

[tickmeister]

Now I’m confused. Is he daid or just wounded.

Loose nut between dash and seat check. Did not know you could deer hunt with a dog in Florida. Darwin, honorable mention.

You know, two of the last three times I read about a dog shooting a person, it come out some weeks later that it was another person shooting someone accidentally, with them agreeing to blame the dog to prevent punishment and [worse] embarrassment.

[driftdiver]

ummm shouldn’t you wait until you get out of the truck to load the rifle.

But the real question is what the heck is he doing hunting deer in florida with a .308!!

[JRandomFreeper]

About the only thing he didn't do wrong was yell "Hold my beer and watch this!"

Well, if he did, the story doesn't say.

Hard to believe they had the guns loaded and safety off in a crowded pickup cab. While I have carried loaded rifles in my pickup while driving in the woods, the safety was always on and I was always alone in the cab. More likely the guys friend shot him by accident and they made the "dog did it" story up to keep from having the friend arrested.

Prolly forgot to play Three Dog Night’s “Eli’s Coming”
Or at least pay attention to the lyrics.

Eli’s comin’ (hide it, hide it, hide it)
Girl, Eli’s a-comin’, you better hide
Girl, Eli’s a-comin’, you better hide
Girl, Eli’s a-comin’, you better hide
Girl, Eli’s comin’, hide your heart, girl (hide it)
You better, better hide your gun
Eli’s comin’, better walk
