[Why does it seem that there are so many more 12 year olds getting shot in hunting accidents this year? Could it be because so many more hunters are pushing their children in to it? And why aren’t they at least identifying their targets before pulling the trigger? How else do they get that alleged “good clean shot” they always like to brag about?]

Police say a 12-year-old Pullman boy was shot and seriously injured Saturday during a hunting trip in southwest Whitman County.
The boy was taken by private vehicle to Whitman Community Hospital in Colfax, then transported to Providence Sacred Heart Hospital in Spokane. His injury was not life-threatening, the Whitman County Sheriff’s Office said.
The boy was hunting with members of his family when he was accidentally struck by a bullet around 8 a.m., police said.
The Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife is leading the investigation.
Exposing the Big Game 
Close to home, I live in Spokane. Too many people, here and elsewhere don’t see anything wrong with children handling guns and going hunting. We have age restrictions on driving, why not put age restrictions on killing?
Good question
Probably because killing requires no responsibility,reguardless the target.
Live by the gun, die by the gun?
Was Dick Cheney with them?
Sorry, I couldn’t resist.
It’s time someone took ALL their guns away. Apart from the obvious harm they are doing anyway to wildlife, that is just totally irresponsible.
