I know we’re supposed to feel bad because a child was involved. Parent who get their kids interested in hunting should be charged with child abuse. In Europe they’re talking about making a child vegan constitutes abuse. But running around in the woods with a gun is father/son bonding. Why do guys have to kill something to bond?
If it’s a crime to have a child go vegan. it should be a crime to have a child.
For a lot of people having a child should be a crime!
