Bad case of stupid

[armedwalleye]

I have friend in the hospital who is lucky to be alive because he is of the mind of "it can't happen to me.". Hunting with a Mossberg semi in 3.5" magnum loaded with 00 buck. Shot a turkey he didn't quite kill. Left gun loaded and probably off-safe. Used gun as club to kill turkey. Shot in left leg almost in the groin. He will need a new hip, new end for the femur and MUCH rehab. Life-flitted to level 1trama center. Missed the femoral artery. I stopped hunting with him a year ago for unsafe gun handling. I hope this makes an impression.

You quit hunting with him a year ago for unsafe hunting practices? Good on you for using that hat holder there on top of your shoulders!!
Apparently the reason you left only hit him recently...
"Ya just can't fix stoopid" Sorry mods, high road and all, it needed to be said.

I'll not dis the guy anymore than has already been done. He's most certainly suffered enough pain and humiliation. It's a tragic thing but it could have been worse.

This person is lucky to be alive, the last thing he needs is us piling on. He made his decisions and now he must live with them. Let this be a lesson to all, the 4 rules are rules not suggestions.
