Thanks for supplying some objective information. IMO, others offering an abundance of opinion here are more adept at political spin than with firearms, ballistics and downrange momentum. Not directed at you, but I can no longer quell the following rant: When I was in high school in the wild west, Cheney territory ironically, the majority spent a part of their free time trying to perforate anything that moved if there wasn't a law against it. All humans, including lawyers, were protected even back then. One group of individuals had been especially bragadocious about their weekend drinking and shooting at one point. Then one Monday morning I learned that one of them had turned following a bird and fatally shot his best friend through the heart with a 22lr at short range. It was a few days before he was in class at all. Not a friend of mine, but I still remember a brief eye contact with him that day. Mournful and tormented don't begin to define it. Had it mattered, I can confidently say he was incapable of doing an interview with the media even at that point. Shootings in the US are so routine that they are irrelevant unless there is papparazi appeal. Now that a high profile accidental shooting has occurred, the prime story is that Geraldo Rivera was not contacted instantaneously. This makes me sick. Just as sick as the current state of US politics. There are two parties, both of which I despise, but everyone seems to be so infatuated with one side or the other that anything is justified to perpetuate their sides dogma or discredit the others. Political spin is king in America and this country is toast until calm rational thought reappears.
