Reading another report makes it sound like they don't know who the shooter was.

easy tiger,
half of southland knows who did what, just because some reporter couldn't find a name from the cops yet don't mean the shooter has "buggered off"
lets just settle down and let things get sorted before we set out on a complete witch hunt.

Well said Greg. He didn't "bugger off" as was previously stated, so lets not go jumping to conclusions and getting all self righteous until all the facts are known

Well, you cant blame the man if he did take off, especially if it was to get 'lawyered up'...the last one to do that got away with blatant murder with 9 month sentence in the pokie and about 7k fine.

Jayzus, it wasn't a statement! Question marks give that away I would have thought.

It is simply how I and others assimilated the info from the written reports I read.
Doesn't matter in the end because some incompetent asshole still shot and killed an innocent person no matter how you look at it.
Self righteous? FFS!

My experience would be that most with that endorsement are lucky vegetables can't run, otherwise they'd go hungry.

Yup! Just because your in the dorksteerers you are automatically experienced.

Needless to say I do not condone what happened in any way!! The guy is a 45 year hunting veteran, I was talking to him a week ago and we were discussing this very topic....faark. Automatically experienced??? Some younger members join to learn from those that are more experienced I would have thought. The real tragedy of all this is the young man who got shot and the young wife and kids left behind. Perhaps we would be better to try to understand all the facts and try to find a way to prevent another incident of this kind.

Struggle to assimilate sarcasm do we?
You obviously are personally involved in a way and know stuff the rest of us don't. So unless you can give the facts there is no point criticising everyone else's attitude on the matter.

But it is fair to say unless there are some extreme circumstances that would have this determined an accident, some idiot no matter how experienced they claim to be broke one of the simplest safety rules and killed someone.
People claim there is a science to misidentification. I reckon it's a mindset not a science, to me claiming a perception as a science is just a cop out for fucking up.

I posted this on the other thread this morning

I just got off the phone from a mate who who heard the shot and spoke to the guilty party after the shooting. If what he told me is correct
and Im sure he wouldnt embellish the truth then it does beggar belief

What im reading above confirms what he told me. Simple case of buck fever and the guy that was shot had high viz on.

Firstly I am not having a go at you!!! I was pointing out that the FACTS have not been made public so in esscence nobody knows what happened. I have not attacked anybody's attitude or opinion because I think all people are entitled to an opinion.....even me!! You may well be right in what you say but as you don't know the facts and nor does anyone else as yet.
I don't understand the sarcasm comment
