RE: Someone I know......
ORIGINAL: GMMAT I'm sure the Father knows how the son screwed up big time! If it were me I would let the Father have the talk with his son. Sure your are mad but this is more of a Father/Son situation than anything! I think the kid would get more out of it hearing how he screwed up coming from his Dad! JMO! I've hunted with this young man before.....and he's been at my house shooting bows. I'll have my own talk with him.....and I'll let dad know that, too. THAT will be fine. |

RE: Someone I know......
Jeff, I understand your position. But bear in mind that this young fella, has a Dad. Now if you are his outdoor mentor, you deserve to point out his mistakes from a law and personal stand-point. But remember we ourselves have a post pro-claiming the dumb things that we have done. Most of them we learned a valued lesson and grew better because of. So talk to them both (Son and Dad) prefferably together, let them see the error and then end on a positive and forget it.
My 2 cents. |

I also have to agree that he shouldn't have done it but it isn't the end of the world. If you talk down he will continue on his way just not letting you know. If you educate him and he is capable of learning you will change his perception.
I also agree that the speeding example does hold water. I would say more so. You speed you increase the likely hood of hurting others. You kill fox's you are affecting animal populations but you have unlikely but humans at risk. I think it is a very valid comparison. Don't cast stones. Everyone makes bad decisions. Notice I didn't say mistakes. Mistakes are spilling milk not shooting at things. If a 14 year old has access to a 30-30 at any time, I would call that a potential safety issue and wouldn't let my kid over there. That is a tough call though because folks who live in rural areas usually live with a lot of guns. Tom |

ORIGINAL: buttonbuckmaster You've never met a farmer that had chickens, sheep, calves, etc that didn't want coyotes/foxes killed? We have farmers that ask us to shoot coyotes here. Foxes are kinda rare here, but I don't think they would have a problem with us shooting them...in season of course.:D |
