Man killed in hunting fight

[petey]

As the story goes, the said property owner saw the hunters on his land, went down to kick them off. He stated it was his land and to get off and the hunters (2) said he doesn't know his property very well and that they were not on his land, that his boundary was close, but they were not on his land. The said landowner then went back to his house and got an "assult" weapon (I've heard fully auto AK of which apparently wasn't registered..or of a kind that was a federal offense) and proceded to fire upon the hunters striking one. The hunters fired in return killing the land owner.

Given the landowner's past convictions, and from what the locals say, I'd say this story is more true than what the media printed...which wasn't much at all. Fact is, the landowner fired first since he was shot in the head. Can't do much shooting after that happens.

We have quite a few nut jobs around here that have the attitude of shoot first ask questions later if you even step on their property. I have one that lives not 2 miles from my house. He's been known to shoot holes in vehicles parked along the road near his property, slash tires and shoot at them just because. ILike I said, I'm all for protecting one's property, but within the laws. Some people just need a shrink...from what I'm told this landowner was one of them.
