Default RE: Another death in Pa.

well you dont really know the things behind the accident, that is why they are called accidents, they can, do, and will happen. unless the guy shot was in plain view of the hunter, and not behind some brush or laurel. and the shooter knew he was there. then yes i would seek higher penalties. when someone walks into the woods and sees another hunter it is their responce ability to get out of range of that hunter, not just out of sight or just far enough in front of them that they can no longer see them. and its the hunter that is setting, responceability to shout stop when they see another hunter aproaching, have you ever done this, i doupt it, may of coughed or tried to make some noise. and orange isn't full proof. i had a guy set up with in 50yards of me on sat. and if i wouldn't of seen him walk in, i wouldn't of ever known he was there. and the only thing between us was a pine tree. i really had to look hard to see the orange threw the needles, In NY. he would of been in trouble, since they can hunt in Full Camo.
