Nope not the answer. There's gun safety and there's hunting safety. Two seperate entities. My question to you was the rules of gun safety.

 

double post.. Sorry..

 

As you all know when Cheney had meetings on our Energy policy, he kept who was in the meeting UNDER WRAPS!! (as if he had something to hide)

Well, I am almost ready to bet that the particulars in this shooting incident/accident will also be KEPT UNDER WRAPS!!

However, we can do what those liberals do, and file a "freedom of information" claim and find out what happened!!!

 

C'mon now... You're going to sit there and imply that in everything you've done that could be construed as bad, that there's not details that you've kept hidden? Do you think that everything the gov'nt does we should know about?

 

Lol, doesn't this remind you of the movie Wedding Crashers when they go hunting for the big bad quail..."I'm psyched!"

 

Wait a minute there! That sounds like a defense to me..

We AIN'T talking about me!! We talking about the VP...

 

This is just friggin' hilarious!!!

You can't make opportunities like this up!!! I couldn't have written a script with such comedy. I can see this playing out now. "Cheney's blood-lust knows no bounds!!!!"

In great comments already being thrown out there, this from James and Sarah Brady:

James and Sarah Brady Comment on the Vice President's Hunting Mishap

2/12/2006 5:40:00 PM


WASHINGTON, Feb. 12 /U.S. Newswire/ -- James and Sarah Brady made comments today related to Vice President Cheney's reportedly accidental shooting yesterday in Texas.

"Now I understand why **** Cheney keeps asking me to go hunting with him," said Jim Brady. "I had a friend once who accidentally shot pellets into his dog - and I thought he was an idiot."

"I've thought Cheney was scary for a long time," Sarah Brady said. "Now I know I was right to be nervous."

Oh man, too funny. This is going to provide tons of entertainment tonight and the next few days. I'm buying a lot of popcorn and soda and sittin' back to watch how this goes down!

 

Okay,look at it this way.

No quail, supposed it was Elk Hunting?

And our beloved VP was armed with a Model 70 in 300 Winchester Magnum, and he cuts one loose and it finds someone in his party!

What then??

 

WASHINGTON, Feb. 12 /U.S. Newswire/ --A direct quote from VP Cheney: " I heard someone shout Quail, about that time a guy named Dan stood...... the rest was all reflex."

 

Ah come on!! Gun Safety and Hunting Safety go together.. Why? Because 90% of hunting is with firearms.

 

One thing for sure, I betcha Bush won't be inviting Cheney to the Crawford Ranch to do anykind of hunting..

 

If ole boy wne to retrieve an elk, I promise that there would be no more elk around for the VP to shoot at, and if that old man made it 300 yards out to where he shot the elk, and the VP lets one loose at him, then it smells fishy.
That's an apples and oranges question, brother.


You know I love ya Howard, but that was "Spoken in the true idiotic fashion of an uninformed liberal." Less than half the population hunts, yet 75% of them own firearms. Conclusion: While 90% of hunting is done with firearms, not all firearms are used for hunting. Using a firearm on the range is far different than being in the woods. Hence, different, but similar rules apply.

 

"A" for effort.

 

Well, first I love ya too.. But, I am still going to disagree with ya!!

Second, that is not an apples & orange question.

That fact of the matter is the VP cut one loose and he didn't look where he was shooting! Period. No ifs, no doubts about it. Because if he was looking where he was shooting he would have seen that someone was there, if he didn't see that person there, and was still shooting in that direction, he had no buisiness shooting at that time.

I am not going to be as kind as you were to me in describing my opinion, I am just going to cheerfully say that your opinion is true to the uninformed conservative line!!

Me thinks you better quit here, because I got all the points on this one. The VP brokes some major rules and THAT CAUSED THE ACCIDENT. Period..

Now,all your conservative coverup (and you all are real good at that, if I must say so myself) is not going to change that!!

 

Whooeee! Anyone else smell that in here???

You ever shoot skeet? Figure out where I'm going with that question and you'll understand how the accident happened.

I was not being unkind. In the truest snse of the word, idiot simply means....whoa, okay I'm a dumbass. I meant ignorant, which of course is simply not knowing... I apologize for that one...
