TAM Report post Posted February 13, 2006 I'll bet Cheney's a little embarassed the words out that he shoots a 28-guage! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KGAINES Report post Posted February 13, 2006 Lark I was thinking the same thing, but I guess 30 yards in the face might hurt just a little. I don't know about intensive care though, the worst thing about it was the guy couldn't shoot back or the secret service guys would have lit him up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DesertBull Report post Posted February 13, 2006 He shot a lawyer, he should be given a medal. He did more to protect the country than John Kerry ever did. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
azhuntnut Report post Posted February 13, 2006 I got hit some years ago at about 60 yards and it stung like a bee. Luckily I was wearing safety glasses. Luckily he was shooting a .28gauge. I think the wounds would have been worse. David Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

az4life Report post Posted February 13, 2006 You guys pointed out a lot of what Jay Leno will be sharing tonight I bet! I read what the Brady's had to say about it. Y'know. Jim Brady, gun control activist... and his wife Sarah. I'd guess Brady still has his lawyers credentials. "Now I understand why Dick Cheney keeps asking me to go hunting with him," said Jim Brady. "I had a friend once who accidentally shot pellets into his dog - and I thought he was an idiot." "I've thought Cheney was scary for a long time," Sarah Brady said. "Now I know I was right to be nervous." Trust the media... Just despicable how the media is grabbing on to this. some of them just saying that Cheney shot him, and not clarifying or even saying peppered. I recall a few years back the Mesa PD had a shooting and they killed a guy who was charging them with a knife, they said the 6 (+or-) police officers fired simultaneously and hit the suspect something like 30 times. Facts were that he was hit with about 26 pellets and 4 slugs. That story sure told the facts but slanted in a way that suited the liberal paper's end in convincing people the police were unjustified.

KGAINES Report post Posted February 13, 2006 Hey az, that was after the guy stabbed his mom ( didn't kill her), and they called the police, then they sued after the outcome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

azcouesandelk Report post Posted February 14, 2006 from what i have heard he only was hit by several pellets and that he came up behind Cheney and was not wearing blaze orange and never said he was behind him. It is bad that this happend but in my opinion it was the lawyers fault. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
