Re: [MBZ] Cheney Good, Guns Good
Rule #1 of firearms safety always be sure of your target and whats beyond it, when in doubt don't shoot. How do we know that the guy walked in front of Cheney? I haven't read or seen any real explanation of what happened. CNN sez Whittington, a prominent Texas lawyer and a campaign donor to the Bush-Cheney campaigns in 2000 and 2004, was hit on the right side of his face, neck and chest when Cheney, an avid hunter, turned and fired on a covey of quail at a ranch near Kingsville, Texas, on Saturday. What I figure is Cheney spotted the quail, forgot his buddy was there and blasted him. Happens all the time and was covered in the video test when I took hunters ed back in '92. I actually got that one wrong on the test because I forgot which side the buddy was supposed to be on... -Curt Date: Tue, 14 Feb 2006 11:33:32 -0600 From: Rich Thomas [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [MBZ] Cheney Good, Guns Good To: Mercedes Discussion List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed The shootee walked into the field of fire without announcing his presence, a dumb maneuver and he should have known better or should have stayed on the porch.

Re: [MBZ] Cheney Good, Guns Good
My baby brother (me born '52, him born '61) is a Secret Service Agent in Presidential protection. Talked to my folks tonight -- die-hard right wingers. As a joke, said, So, is John going to go quail hunting with Cheney? The answer shocked me -- He already has, several times. Guess he does this a lot, and the USSS always makes sure to stay on the non-lethal end of the shotgun! Must be training that TX attorneys don't receive. D.

Re: [MBZ] Cheney Good, Guns Good
BT Wrong TPWD incident report pins the blame squarely on Cheney. http://online.wsj.com/public/article/washington_wire.html Monday, Feb. 13 The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department's incident report on Vice President Dick Cheney's accidental shooting of a hunting partner Saturday pins the blame largely on Cheney. In evaluating contributing factors, the game warden checked off the box: Victim covered by shooter who was swinging on game. In its summary, the report says that 78-year-old Harry Whittington downed a bird and went to retrieve it. While he was out of the hunting line another covey was flushed and Cheney swung on a bird and fired striking Whittington in the face, neck and chest at approximately 30 yards. Lydia Saldaña, spokeswoman for the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, said Cheney would also receive a warning citation because he did not have the proper upland game bird stamp required to hunt quail, but that he would not be fined. The game warden's report contradicts earlier claims from the White House and Katharine Armstrong, the owner of the Texas ranch where the shooting occurred. Earlier Monday, the White House cited Armstrong's view that Whittington was at fault. She pointed out that the protocol was not followed by Mr. Whittington when it came to notifying the others that he was there, said White House spokesman Scott McClellan. Some hunting groups chastised the vice president. It's incumbent upon the shooter to assess the situation and make sure it's a safe shot, Mark Birkhauser, president-elect of the International Hunter Education Association, told the Associated Press. The Corpus Christi Caller-Times, the paper that first broke the story, identified the third hunter in the party as Pamela Willeford, the U.S. Ambassador to Switzerland and Liechtenstein and a former chairman of the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board. Cheney's office would not confirm the report that Willeford was the third hunter. --Christopher Conkey On 2/14/06 11:33 AM, Rich Thomas [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: The shootee walked into the field of fire without announcing his presence, a dumb maneuver and he should have known better or should have stayed on the porch.

Way back in the olden days when I learned gun safety, I was taught that I should be accountable for every squeeze of the trigger--no excuses. There was poor judgement by both dolts, but the shooter ultimately owns the liability.
