Just had V-day lunch with DH. The restaurant gave me a rose - Nice! And so far, no one has sent me a Barbershop Quartet, though I saw them in the mall. (SUE!)

So now the guy had a heartattack due to bird shot reaching his heart: [link]

Also, per my family in TX - Cheney did not have a valid liscense to be hunting quail.

Also, per my family in TX - Cheney did not have a valid liscense to be hunting quail.

According to the ranch owner, they drove up to the shoot point, which is also illegal.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That article says:

The state Parks and Wildlife Department issued Cheney a warning for not possessing a required stamp on his hunting license, but the sheriff's deputies announced there was "no alcohol or misconduct involved in the incident."

Not having the proper license isn't misconduct? ISTG.

Cheney did not have a valid liscense to be hunting quail.

Ah, but did he have a valid licence to be hunting campaign contributors?

I am pretty sure that what needs to happen now is for some NRA members to have a press confernce and state how people like Cheney who do not obey the hunting laws and practice safe gun practices are the ones giving real hunters a bad name. He needs to be held up as a bad example.

Not to mention the part where, if The Daily Show is to be believed, it wasn't even actually hunting, just shooting birds. I mean, if we're supposed to say the guy got "peppered" instead of "shot," shouldn't we be saying "killing birds" instead of "hunting"?
