Glad they are worried about the real issues.

….

Also do some damn target practice next time

Give the kid some credit! A 400 ft shot and got an ear is actually pretty good.

Bit dumb to aim for the head if you might only get one shot.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I’m not sure he had a lot of time to plan that shot.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago (2 children)

If you were in his case you wouldn't think that through ahead of time?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yeah I'd think he's wearing a vest...aim for the head.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

That's fair. I'd say don't shoot someone in general but yeah.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

In general yes.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Me now? Yes. If I were to do such a thing it wouldn’t be with that tool from that perch, etc.

Me at 20? I might not have much more foresight.

But, you know he knew the outcome. And when you are in that state of mind, some things slip through the cracks along with your sanity.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yeah probably. I do wonder if he told anyone about it beforehand.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Probably not? I’m curious if he was having health issues. The photos of him at the scene had him looking very thin, but some others online are not like that.

Really no scope? I mean, that’s very impressive while under stress.

Especially from a semi-auto.
