Of course it depends on the scenario, but why is a "genuine accident" ok with a motor vehicle (kills a lot more people than firearms in NZ) but the same doesn't apply to a firearm? Either way there's...

The best way to not shoot anyone is to be like me, and never go hunting or shoot anything. Hard to shoot people by accident posting on the internet from home!

I'm also never going to have a car crash because I'm a perfect drive :ORLY: If you think you are perfect (will never make a mistake identifying target) I feel you have the highest chance of making...

Its a bloody tragedy nonetheless. Personally, I have avoided hunting over Easter for 20 years now. I have known of four associates / friends killed in the roar, and another seriously injured. People...

Let me know when this 110% certain team is heading out hunting so I can be very far away :thumbsup: I'd rather be around people who doubt what they see and hear and constantly check themselves.

Anyone that believes they're completely 100% infallible to this scenario is kidding themselves. Also, no one is suggesting it as an excuse to escape blame, it's just part of why it happens. Error...

Your assertion is flawed Ryan. Does your unequivocal certainty keep other hunters' more safe than my uncertainty does? My view is that it is a possibility for everyone, including yourself and...

I don't get where sociopaths come into this. Is that where a shooter doesn't care one way or another if it's a human? I'm not calling Confirmation Bias an excuse at all. It's one reason these...
