I really should not be making light of this because it's another inexcusable shooting, but who can ignore the headline?

Hope she is okay :bible: :cross2: and I will pray for her recovery
I am dumbfounded by the ignorance that people have - At what point does a person bypass common sense and some other persons safety just so that person can have bragging rights ?
Is killing a hog , deer , or turkey worth taking risks like this ?
The headline is a bit humorous.
I'm 100% with Shannon on this one. I will never be able to understand how this can happen, so I won't wrack my brain trying now. It happens far too often locally once deer season gets here, let alone in every other state around the country.
"When Egan heard rustling in the woods, he fired in her direction without first making visual confirmation with his intended target." :z-winnersmiley: >:(
:agreed:

:agreed: The exact reason why I wear orange from head to toe during deer season. TO MANY IDIOTS OUT THERE NOWADAYS.
Ok, I'll bite.
She must've been one hogmolly of an ugly woman to look like a hog! :goofball:
Look before I post what Im about to let me say stupid shooting are just that stupid, but I hope the girl is ok but....
That is the FUNNIEST headline I have ever seen! :TooFunny: :TooFunny: :TooFunny:
Craziness :OGturkeyhead:
Oink, Oink here piggy piggy!!!
Hope she makes a full recovery, and someone put there foot up his butt!!!
I couldnt help but laugh at the story though I feel terrible because she is seriously injured. He should beaten within a inch of his life for doing that, but I can't help but think it may not have been accidental.
Life is too short to have a girlfriend that is easily mistaken for a wild hog.
(The consequences of pulling the trigger are too high to shoot without identifying the target, too.)
The headline is an attention grabber for sure--which I am sure was the intent.
