I thought it was illegal in California to arm your dogs. Or was that bears?

The hunter was distracted by the decoys...

QUACK!

Setting a gun down with a round in the chamber is stupid, even with the safety on. Hopefully this guy learned his lesson.

Man he got killed by a "stray" bullet.

Doesn't the NRA offer some kind of gun safety course? Perhaps instead of protecting the rights of gang members to own Mac-10's they should be out teaching people to be safe with the guns they already own.

Man; 'Sit, boy, Stay, I gotta go check the decoys'.

Dog; (thinking to himself) 'You know what, I'm get tired of all the time, staying and sitting and rolling over and fetching.....'

Another boring DOG STEPS ON GUN story

Statistically, freak accidents happen, but the stupid fucks are the ones that needs to be isolated and disarmed.

Now, if we could teach deer to shoot, the match will be even. Most deer hunters wouldn't care cause the reason they have for going hunting is to get away from their wives and drink!

This makes the "man bites dog" seem like a non-story.

It's not unusual for the first kill during Michigan deer season to be a hunter. Enough beer makes orange look brown, I guess.

This happens more often than you'd think.

When I was a paramedic we were called to a scene where a man had attempted to pull his shotgun through the rear door of his car after a hunting trip.

Unfortunately, he chose to remove it by the muzzle and the trigger caught on a coat hanger lying on the seat.

Also, very unfortunately, he had been hunting deer and the gun was still loaded with buckshot.

It definitely wasn't pretty and he definitely wasn't alive when we got there.

Any body who shoots dear with buckshot is a moron to begin with. He probably got that way eating all the lead his daddy fed him as a kid. Frickin' hillbillies.

Wow! That dog can hunt. At any rate this is a doggone shame. That poor canine will be traumatized for life, and to think, it was just hours away from duck feet stew before he shot the cook.

"Any body who shoots dear with buckshot is a moron to begin with."

True but this guy was retrieving duck decoys when he got shot so I'd assume he was duck hunting.

You mean "deer" instead of dear?

The man is actually very lucky that he was hunting fowl. If he wasn't using bird-shot and instead was using deer slugs, he wouldn't be here today. Then again, the dog probably wouldn't have been there either.

If this guy had any smarts, he would have skipped the mutt, had some peon hold the bird down while he shot it, and freed up more drinking time.

Fuck you very much,
