Your opinion is fuked up!

Here is a young man who made a tragic mistake. Does anyone really think putting this kid away is going to help him?

That kid and the victims family will be impacted forever. Does the victims family feel that the kid should be locked up? If they do, they are more screwed up than The Hunt.

That kid needs counseling, he needs guidence and love. He is not going to find the help he needs in a juvenile institution.

If anyone should be punished, maybe it should be his mentors who taught the ethics of hunting to that kid.

I have a 13 year old who is going in to his second season. He carried BB guns to show me that he could properly handle a firearm. I have taught him that you never point a firearm at something unless you plan to kill it. And you never point a firearm at something before you have made positive identification.

There are proper ways to handle a firearm and be a ethical hunter. It is up to all of us who have been out there for years to teach!

This was a tragic mistake, but condeming that young man will only create more problems for him.
