Not a meaningless analogy
or
It's a sacred cow

It is good that you live in Wisconsin and have access to the rumours, I live on the net where the rumours are rumours and the information that is available is clear. From the Times Online <<It is not clear who opened fire first>> (I can provide a link for this piece of information.) I am guessing that he was a better shot than those other people, that is a guess that is supported by the facts.
None of your guesses are supported by the facts.
I will make more guesses, when the wounded men <<radioed back to thier nearby cabin for reinforcements>> the should have radioed back for evacuation, it appears that they were already in a war zone. I will also guess that the next group that came out to reinforce the first two tried to kill the shooter by shooting at him.
You never did see the movie Deer Hunter did you ?

The sacred cow that you are protecting has nothing to do with humans killing humans, which is a perfectly acceptable activity, moral equivalency can be presumed. The sacred cow that you are protecting is your ridiculous assertion that human life has more value than animal life, this is what you believe. All the hunters in the story were out killing deer. You may not mind, I may not mind but if there is a deer god, you are going straight to hell, he may overlook me because I can recognize sacred cows when I see them.
