Very sad...some people are really stupid

Post by Clueless »

A freshman that goes to my school was shot in the head in a hunting accident this weekend. He was like 300 yards away wearing blaze orange and everything, and the guy thought he was a deer. The poor kid was only 14. I hate seeing people cry. its sad.

The hunter should not be allowed to use a gun if he's that stupid, since I don't remember anyone editing the scripts to make deers spawn orange, so thinking it was a deer is a rather lame excuse lol.

Do you know what time he was shot? do you also know if he was shot by friends or family?

300 yrds is actually quite a distance for an 'accidnet' The one who had shot must have had the freshman in his sites

Yeah, I couldn't help but laugh out loud after reading Red's wonderfully insightful and witty comments. Bravo, son, bravo.

So God just has a bunch of scripts he uses to re-spawn all of creation? Guess that proves reincarnation. I wonder where the spawn points are, sure would make hunting a lot easier.

most definatley suspicious. The sun had only just set however they should have only just arrived. Given the relative time, the 45 year old should have know where the rest of his party was and he had to have know he was aiming toward them when he had the target in his sites.

Knowing Red, I was thinking it more of a UO reference.

That’s horrible! I had three people in my class die, and I knew two. It’s hard to accept that young, healthy people can die. We all count on having decades ahead of us.

I assure you, I didn't think it was a 'serious' observation. It struck me as completely tactless, hence my sarcastic responses.

I hear of too many incidents of people getting killed or hurt because of drunk people doing stupid things, like driving and using guns. It's bad how there's so many stupid people who don't control themselves when they drink. It's not like they're not educated, since you hear of that all the time, on commercials, school, etc, to drink responsibly, but yet so many people fail to do so. What sucks is it's innocent people that suffer from this too.


edit: LOL as I clicked submit a "don't drink and drive" commercial started playing on TV
