I am not a bird hunter as such. I have done some bird hunting, but very little. I must say however that I have never pulled the trigger without knowing what was behind my target. If I do not have time for that, then the bird gets away, better to pass the shot and be safe. The simple fact of the matter is that Cheney shot someone else, the gun was in his hands he pointed it at the other man and pulled the trigger. There is no excuse for it. If you went hunting with a bunch of guys and got blasted like this guy did, would you say @#$% happens? I am sure it was an accident, and Cheney is mortified. The fact remains, that he exhibited textbook poor gun and hunter safety.
