[Bad enough that so many fathers are out to corrupt their young teen’s natural affinity toward animals, but at least they could be sure to unload the weapons at the end of the day just so no one gets shot while packing them back into their vehicle.]

A 13-year-old Fort Worth boy is expected to recover after being shot in an apparent hunting accident near Whitney over the weekend.

The teen was packing up after hog hunting with his father and another father and son in the 300 block of Hill County Road 1263 around 9 p.m. Saturday, September 21, when the shooting occurred, according to Hill County Sheriff’s Office reports.

A weapon apparently discharged as the group was loading gear into the back of a vehicle, according to Lieutenant Kyle Cox. The boy was struck by a bullet in the lower abdomen.

He was transported to Cook Children’s Medical Center in Fort Worth by CareFlite air ambulance and is reported to be in good condition, according to Lieutenant Cox.

Whitney Fire Rescue first responders were called to the scene, along with Sergeant Adam Tovar of the Hill County Sheriff’s Office and Game Warden Doug Volcik.

Everyone in the group resides in Fort Worth but owns property locally, according to sheriff’s office reports.

Lieutenant Cox said the shooting is currently being investigated as an accident and no charges have been filed at this time.

FORT WORTH — A Fort Worth teen who was out hunting feral hogs in Hill County was seriously wounded over the weekend when another teen placed a rifle down on the backseat of a truck and the weapon discharged, authorities said Sunday.

The 13-year-old, whom authorities did not immediately identify, was taken by helicopter ambulance to Cook Children’s Medical Center in Fort Worth where he underwent surgery. His condition early Sunday was listed as serious.

A friend of the family says the boy is an eighth-grader at Prairie Vistas Middle School in Fort Worth; the school is in the Eagle Mountain-Saginaw school district.

Investigators with the Hill County Sheriff’s Office believe it was an accidental shooting and no criminal investigation is under way, said Chief Deputy Sheriff Mark Wilson with the Hill County Sheriff’s Office.

The shooting occurred about 9 p.m. Saturday in a rural area a few miles south of Whitney. Whitney is about 70 miles south of Fort Worth.

The teen, another young boy and the father of one of the boys were out hunting hogs, Wilson said Sunday. One of the boys laid the rifle on a backseat and the weapon fired just as the victim was walking by the truck, Wilson said.

Authorities confiscated the rifle.

Texas Teen Kills His Elder

By now you’ve probably read, or heard on the news, something to the effect of “Texas teen ‘bags’ an 800-pound record alligator.” The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department say the alligator was between 30 and 50 years old. [That’s right, the animal was older and wiser than the young human who hooked and shot him.]

Typical of the media’s coverage of the atrocity is the following article from the Seattle Times:

A Houston-area high school senior has bagged a 14-foot, 800 pound alligator – the heaviest ever certified in Texas – on his first alligator hunt. [Great, he’s a trophy hunter for life now, no doubt.]

Texas Parks and Wildlife Department officials say 18-year-old Braxton Bielski bagged [“BAGGED”? Here the press are being about as disrespectful of the animal as the murderous kid] the record gator last week at Choke Canyon State Park, about 90 miles south of San Antonio.

The agency says in a statement that Braxton shot the giant reptile after hooking it on a line using raw chicken as bait. [They call it a “hunt” but the poor animal was hooked in the water like a fish, only later to be shot by the mighty human “hunter.”]

Bielski’s father, Troy Bielski, won a Parks and Wildlife drawing for a five-day permit to hunt in the Daughtry Wildlife Management Area. The Houston police officer says his son had been dreaming of hunting alligators for years. [Serial killers fantasize for years before murdering their victims too.]

I posted this article to my Facebook page yesterday; it received these fitting comments:

“For absolutely no significant purpose whatsoever. Sickening. This is what young people are taught through so many societal avenues – that no other living creature matters, except them and those like them. Not even other human beings. Humans are raising a whole bunch of Sociopaths and Psychopaths. Very Frightening.”

“Sick–go into its habitat–bait a hook–then shoot it from a boat when it comes up…”

“Wow, this is something to be proud of? There will probably never be an 800 lb alligator on this planet again, so good for this little asshole, he got the last one. I’m sure the killer of the last wolf, bear, cougar….will be just as proud of himself.”

Need I say more?

It’s not so surprising to hear about Syrian rebel leaders eating human hearts when this kind of treatment of other living things is taught to today’s youth.
