Oh come on OEH. I can pick out littlerly hundreds of isolated incidents where a freaky things happened. Its a shame what happened to your lady friend. And I am glad she is ok. Are you trying to tell me you never, ever once bent the law hunting? Ever shot at a deer, elk or whatever thru brush? Ever on flat land and took a shot at a deer in a field. There's a bunch of stories out there of these isolated incidents wounding people. I am big turkey hunter, and if you ask my old inlaws, they will tell you its stupid to take a shot at a turkey unless you are on a elevated position over the turkey cause some incident happened to an uncle where he got hit in the eye by one shot 100's of yards away.

When you get 280 million people in a country, there are bound to be some isolated crazy stories that only happen once in a million chances.

I guess it reminds me of people who come up to me and tell me about a bad motorcycle incident that happened to someone in thier family when they see me roll up on mine. I tell them I refuse to live my life in fear. All this is due respect. But totolly think you guys are being way too self righteous.

Isolated stories is what I argue with coworkers that want all guns banned.
