I did read it. Trying to justify shooting a gun around kids made you look even dumber. I don't care where you are shooting, what direction you are aiming-if there are kids near by, you don't shoot-period. |

Uh, tried all that. I'm not going to get the only cop our town has for something so stupid. And they're a bunch of white trash rednecks with about 100 cars (maybe more) scattered about their property. They don't listen to anything. Kid who is like 12 or 13 doesn't know what grade he is in. He says he doesn't keep track of that stuff ??? Other people on the street have been having issues with their horse eating things at their house as well and we live on a private road so we deal with most of the stuff ourself. And we don't care if wild animals eat the food. But we're not feeding the neighbors horse. It eats until the food is gone. Takes huge dumps about the lawn which the neighbors won't clean up. If it keep ups there is a guy at my dads work who sells horses on the side, we might end up taking their horse and letting the guy sell it. I think their last horses were taken away because of neglect. |

There are some nice pest controll specialty rounds you can get for a 12 guage. We use them on the airfield to chase away birds (because the bunny huggers won't let us use #7 :) )
They fire mini grenades. Around 2 grams of grenade. They dont' fly far around 50m max, and they don't sound like a gunshot going off. They explode on impact. Useful for shooting over flocks of birds and making a noise on the far side of them to chase them away from the runway and the like. Alternatively get some of these
12 guage baton rounds. :) While the hippies might not get it, (and they are also probably anti spanking kids as well) it does seem like you took all reasonable precautions. Just keep it safe. KBK Edited by Kayback - 07 January 2008 at 1:27am |

Get the only cop in town to do his job? Seriosuly, it is is job and i'm sure he wouldn't mind doing it. I tell you, If I was getting shot at at all, the police would definately be involved so you are lucky. Seriously? You are calling THEM white trash rednecks? And now you are going to steal their horse? And kayback, I seriosuly hope that was a joke post. Edited by carl_the_sniper - 07 January 2008 at 11:07am |

Carl, I wasn't shooting at them moron.
And to Kayback, I don't want to hurt the horse or take any chances hitting it so I'm going to stick to shooting into the bottom of the ravine in the opposite direction that it eats at. And about the cop, he has been out here before and basically since it's a private road he told us he can't do much more than ask them to keep the horse on their property. I don't feel like dragging the cop out to my place when something serious could happen and he might actually be needed. |

Private road? All that means is outsiders aren't wanted.
Cops can still come in. You definitely have more than one cop in your town. This isn't the Andy Griffith Show. |

It's a private road, which means anything goes on the street. It's not public property. And we only have 1 cop, town small, and low on cash so they only have the 1. |

Doesn't matter if it's public property, neither is my yard. The 1 cop is like 15% believable. |

It's not necessarily the danger to the children that freaks people out, it's the fact that you're so wlling to use a dangerous weapon for something as trivial as scaring some little kids and a horse. It's the idealogy behind it.
And honestly, if you don't realize that saying you used your 500 to drive off children is going to get you slammed by 90% of all humans practising any form of common sense, you really are a moron. Even giving the idea that it's okay to use a gun for any purpose other than what it's intended simply adds to the growing dissatisfaction and lack of trust towards gun owners in general. Think of it lke this-every time you abuse your right to own a weapon, you push us all a little closer to not being able to own them at all. I swear, kids like you are why God made gun locks. |

I know the cop can come, but I'm saying they can't enforce some of the normal laws. An example of that and only having one cop would be this summer when the crazy old lady neighbor heard some kids riding dirt bikes, and called the cops saying I was tearing the road up with my quad. The cop came, found out I wasn't even home(was at a car show) and explained to my parents and the only woman that it's a big waste of everyones time because even if I was tearing up the road on my quad, or whatever else for that matter, he can't do anything about it unless it's after 11 PM. He wasn't to happy that he had to drive out for nothing.

So what if I were using it to scare crows ? Lots of people use guns to scare large animals away, and since I knew kids were around I went out back so they couldn't actually see the gun itself. You're over reacting and making it sound like I was out to hurt something. The gun makes the most noise, so I used it. Shot it safely in a safe direction at least 150-200 yards away, and in the other direction of the stuff it scared. |

I wan't saying that you were out to hurt someone, I'm saying that saying you used a firearm to scare away lttle kids is disturbing.
And I'd say crows and children are completely different prey. Do you really want to even give the impression to a little kid that you're shooting at him? My problem isn't with the horse, because the horse wasn't equating the noise he heard with gunfire, he was startled. The child on the other hand is aware of what's going on, and that's just not the way to handle a situation. |

Well, the purpose was originally to scare the horse, my mom got sick of kid and yelled at them, I thought they were pretty much home when it turns out they were trying to be slick and hide behind trees, so my mom was watching the horse as I shot the gun ( I was out back ) and she said she saw the kids take off from behind some trees.

Right... I definatley believe that
You just spent a page of this thread tyrying to reason with us why it was reasonable to use a deadly weapon to scare kids away. Now when you see that nobody is coming to help you, you completely change it to: "Yes I did, but I didn't mean it". |
