I am going to have to stick up for this one. The only place around me that I have to practice is in my backyard. I have had my neighbors approach me with concerns because they do have small children. I told them I would be more conscious of it and be sure to only shoot when they are not home or while not outside. I understand peoples concerns when it comes to it, but as others have said people get killed by cars, we havent outlawed driving, people get killed by trains we havent outlawed those either. There are many things in this world that people get killed by and it always seems as though people are out to attack hunters. Just my thinking....
