    Do we know if the persons who were shot were the adults, the children, from the same group or from different groups?

I hope they are charged with reckless endangerment to a child.
    +1 I Like Johnny park, it's a nice place to camp and shoot that is near me. I don't want it to turn into another lefthand.

    The news last night stated that they still did not have that information.

    Well, I was up there for one of our meetings a couple of years ago, I was by myself and there was one group of three "adults" and four kids that were shooting at the little "pistol" area.

    I went down to set up targets, and heard a ricochet go past.I look back in their direction in time to see one of the adults messing with a rifle. I yelled at him, and proceed down to where he was, and ask him if He just did not see me. He said no, at which I called BS, because I was wearing my blaze orange hoodie..

    At that point I launched into a profanity laced interpitation of the commandments of safe shooting.. I went back and started setting up the rest of my stuff and within 10 minutes I noticed that they had packed up and left..

    So, I do know that with stupid people, anything is possible.. He may have been lucky that it wasn't 25 years ago, when I wasn't quite as congenial as I am now.

    Was this incident at the North spot by the Hwy 7 & 72. My wife is harping on me cause I like to shoot up there in the AM. I am usually the only one there. And the thing that baffles me, if you are up there shooting, you would probably notice the other peoples car on the side of the road.... Right? Am I wrong thinking that would be the first clue that I may have to watch for others....

    Jeeeeeses .... If I have to worry about getting shot in the ass up there, I may as well drop the cash for the Trigger time membership and pay though the nose. It will be cheaper than the hospital bills to follow.

    The people shot were from the same group. It appears that only one group was negligent/downright idiotic in the handling of their firearms.

    This is really upsetting as I am going up there tomorrow with a friend to test out a new purchase, and don't feel like watching my back (ass) the whole time. If anyone else is going up on Weds., please don't shoot me in the ass. I happen to enjoy being able to sit down and taking a dump without a shit bag. As a matter of fact, I like myself the way I am and don't want anymore holes in me, so just don't shoot me period. Thanks.

    Just dodge the bullets, it's easier than looking out for all the idiots.
