You asked if there was anything we can do just ask!!!!
I dont want alot of arguing on this post this time..
I want to clear somethings up, first I posted a request for help because, one you asked if there was anything we could do dont hesitate to ask( I did), secondly, because, I thought maybe just maybe if the law sees people stand together one it would ensure that my sons death wasnt in vein, and second it would ensure that they wouldnt sweep the FACT that three laws were in fact broken.
Next, I have spent more effort into my sons' counseling then you all might want to beleive.
Next, to those that doubt my trueth I know you may think Im angry (iam) but im not as angry about the death as much as im angry that the father didnt fulfill his responsablities as an adult and a father, I know you think his side you havnt heard but, i was married for twelve years and have known him for fifteen and the law has let me down in the past, im trying to ensure my kids that I will do all I can to make sure the law helps all of us even the father, He needs to face the things has done, as I do, as we all do, you say i want revenge, you say I want him to burn at the stakes, well I say this about the law, Im not asking anyone to help with custody just stand together on the FACT that the law was broken................
If you want to know more my web-site is now done and it is a tthis site http://tinab-33.tripod.com/ thank you and please dont argue about this. We dont need to fued we need to stand together for all children not just mine......

RE: You asked if there was anything we can do just ask!!!!
Tina, for what it's worth, I think every single member on this board shares your grief and loss from a senseless and preventable accident. None of our members would allow their young kid to hunt by himself or send another young child out to tell him to come home and risk the tragic consequences you suffered. We are not heartless as another member has implied nor do we wish you, your family or even your ex ill will. Most members were focused on counselling to help all of you get through this tragedy, a help the living concept if you will.
Your central argument comes from many members being reluctant to email or send letters to local LE people and demand an investigation and prosecution. The reasons for being reluctant to write ranged from wanting to get more information, believing (from other experiences) that letters don't help that much to some that wanted to hear from the father, etc. I can see where that is frustrating and disheartening.
Something you've probably noticed by now is that most members in this poitical section will discuss, cuss and argue almost any topic to the bitter end. While they may seem heartless or callous, they are really just having a good argument about whatever subject gets posted. Yes, a few get mad from time to time and we experience a few flame wars now and then but most people will discuss any issue in great detail and do so out of a desirre to learn more and maybe a little bit of just plain enjoying an argument now and then.
If you could imagine most of us sitting around a hunting campfire arguing over whether a 270 Win or 30-06 is a better caliber for deerhunting, you would get a much better perspective of what occurs on this board. As you probably know full well, both calibers are excellent deer rifles and have killed lots of deer. each has it's own advantages and disadvantages. Both will do the job just fine. However, that isn't nearly as fun as arguing about it and in the process, you will learn a whole lot that you never knew about one or both of the calibers.
I've been to your website and wanted to let you know that my prayers are with you. Although I've been a cop for 14 years now and definitely had some questions about what happened in your son's incident, I firmly believe that my and everybody else's prayers are the single most productive thing any of us can offer, as well as a shoulder to cry on. you have both and I pray that God comforts you and your family in this tragedy.

RE: You asked if there was anything we can do just ask!!!!
Tina, you have our prayers. In my opinion the most significant factors that make people skeptical is, (1) this is the internet and looking at a monitor sort of distances ourselves and (2) this as a hunting website, hunters do not want to be a party to anti-hunting legislation and that is what they might be afraid it would lead too.
Its sad the world is different these days, words between people don't seem to mean as much many times, and that is why people are reluctant.
RE: You asked if there was anything we can do just ask!!!!
Ditto Cal and Cougar!
Tina I just visited your site and my heart aches for you and your other children. Especially Briar....my feeling is that counseling would be a positive stepping stone for all of you at this time of heart break and tragedy. Please know that my prayers and positive thoughts are being sent....
As a mother I cannot imagine the pain one feels when you lose a child. Although time will never erase what happened, perhaps this incident will prevent others of its kind in the future. Blessings to you and all involved.
RE: You asked if there was anything we can do just ask!!!!
To calhunter,
Thanks for the explaination you gave its been the best by far.
And your prayer is more then needed my children need all of us to pray.
And before a letter or a note could ever do anything may or may not do anything but prayer will do way more and that I believe so again thanks for not ripping me to shreads on this one.....
As for hearing from the father I would love to hear from him so I would get to talk to my son, which guys and gals that is what hurts the most, not being able to be there for him kills me, its just not fair that I not only was taking away from Dalton most of the past three years but Briar needs all of us and taking the rights away from him, his sisters and his mom is just cruel in my heart and eyes and although I pray it still hurts.
Thank You

Cougar Mag,
Thank you for your prayers,
my children need that.
LOL yes I agree the internet is a laugh
and just for the record I am not even wanting the Anti-hunting to start, I think hunting is a good sport, family time and that feeling hasnt changed, the only thing that has changed is that what should have been taught to both of my sons simple should have been the right way is all.

Thanks for your kind words and taking the time to view the site.
Im still having a hard time dealing with losing a son but, God will see me threw,
I pray that what has happen allows other parents to stop and think these accidents can be prevented, and need to be, as a parent I want to grow old knowing I did everything I could to protect and teach my children all I can I dont want them blaming me as the grow up. One of the persons in here said how did I know if an adult was there would it have still happened my answer is" well I dont but I know if I was there it wouldnt have simple because I would have said before you shoot what is it" but thats me.
Thank you agian, God Bless You and your Family

Ben, I thought it was onebullet who mentioned the anti-hunting petition. Irregardless, we can still offer our prayers and sympathy. Like I said, there isn't a hunter on this board who does not wish this terrible accident had not happened.

BenGarrett,
what anti-hunting petition I never said anything about that at all, this isnt about hunting its about law braking. If you brake the law you should face the consequence that come wiht braking these laws to me that has nothing to do with an anti- hunting petition in anyway.
I'm sorry I find that kinda funny no offence entended but, I have nothing agnainst hunting when done responsiably who would at least to me that is......
