In 2001, Spirit shot his 8-year-old son to death in what was determined to be a hunting accident, the Orlando Sentinel newspaper reported.

He pleaded guilty to possessing a firearm as a convicted felon in connection with the case and was sentenced in a plea deal to three years in prison, the paper reported.


You have to wonder what percentage of 'gun accidents' are accidentally on purpose.

A girl I worked with back in the 80's was shot and killed "accidentally" by her boyfriend.  Pretty much everybody figured he'd done it deliberately, but there was no evidence.

Came home from the morning hunt during the late buck season here. Look who also came home. Not more than 20 meters off the back deck.

Are you allowed to shoot deer off your back deck in your jurisdiction?

If I wanted, yes. No challenge though.

In Kentucky you need to have a hunting license to take deer, period, but if you have one you can kill them on your own property.  Had a buck run through my back yard last weekend but I wouldn't have been able to take a safe shot since he was facing my neighbor's house.  Of course, I hate that neighbor, so...  :menace:

Reminds me of a video I took of my wife shooting one of those for the first time. Is that from a Remington ad? It looks similar to my shotgun, which was manufactured in 1965.

She is holding the gun wrong though.
Buttstock is not in the shoulder, sight aligment is horrible, body posture is not leaning into the gun's recoil.
But she is skinny and young.

It's really "americanski", comrade.  When you drink you betray your foreign influences.
