When I was young I knew enough to mind my manners, not to beg because I was not getting my way, and to NEVER interrupt adults that were engaged in things other then watching some kids world not go round the way he wanted it to. And never to be a PITA.

Maybe I was raised different. Had I been his age and tried to pull that kind of stunt in front of my father.. I wouldn't have shot a gun, but I would have still picked my self off the ground. In my own defense, I would have never done anything to actually or intentionally hurt him. If I had felt for a second it would injure him, I wouldn't have done it. But.. It did get his attention though.
