because they drove around in a car to find the quail
then they sneak out quick and start shooting ill prepared...

lucky they were on a private property...

It took 24 hours before it got leakes to the press....Happened Saturday and we didn't here about ity until Sunday.

And if someone is in front of you hunting and you shoot them wouldn't you shoot them in the back.....This guy was shot in the Face and Chest.

My guess is Cheney got pissed because this guy forgot the 30 pack and the Pork Rinds.

Lawyer friend no more

Just so you all know the guy Cheney shot is adamant death penalty opponent and a left wing liberal to boot. In Texas he is considered a dinosaur.

Cheney and crew probably needed a day to sober up. If the guy died they would have still delayed informimg others. Do you see the same pattern of this double standard unaccountable administration.

you got that right! Know your "backdrop" and be aware of your surroundings. If there is a hint of doubt you shouldnt be shooting!

There is NO excuse and I dont care if I offend someone either. If my best friend wants to show me their new gun and assures me its unloaded....it still gets checked and treated as if it were, no matter how much I trust them.

Its too bad responsible gun owners once again have to feel the heat of a irresponsible act.

Angry

My Dad was a stickler for firearm safety. There were no "unloaded" guns. Ammo was stored properly. You don't need to chamber it for it to go off. I once worked on Police cruisers, some of those guys had shotshells, slugs and 9mm rounds rolling all over the floor. I'd box them up and hand them back with my best"IDIOT BOY!" look. One of the reasons that I gave up hunting was that I couldn't tolerate the casual handling of firearms of others.

It's quite obvious how casually our VP handles firearms, don't you think?

Why are accidents called accidents? Most acciedents are preventable to a point, but odds are there will be accidents. From what I heard it was a miscommunication between members of the party. The guy who got hit left to chase a wounded bird, and returned as the VP was swinging and aiming on a bird, the guy never let them know he was back in the line. Could it have been avoided, yes had the guy called out that he was back at the line, or had he been paying attention to what was going on, he could have stopped where he was, or moved. The press is making a big deal about it because the story went out in a local Texas paper first, and the bigshot White House Press Corp did not get it till later. I have been hit by shot before, it happens, granted I was 70 or 80 yards away in a duck blind.

Important that nobody was seriously hurt - but the jokes coming off of this are hilarious...

But this is some of what we've heard:

The quail were "stocked" and "released" before the VP rat patrol vehicles, the "Lawyer" was coming back from a shoot, did not announce it, and apparently, the VP did not visually confirm the quarry was a legal "cock" or "hen" and just managed to take the shot on the lawyer instead... Or is he that bad of a shot??

Its sad and I for one feel bad for Cheney and his buddy. How the hell would you guys feel if you shot your good friend by mistake? Knowing your buddy is in the hospital with all sorts of crap inside his body. And have to sit back and listen to the media joke about you and your buddy in the hospital. Nothing funny about this if you ask me. Some people are enjoying this and its rather sad and pathetic.
