    He makes infinitely more sense than fellow conspirators: ASLANSPAL, Rocko9, poncho, Petrel, and "Bro" Curtis. The implications of the trash posted in the OP are what would be expected in a tabloid, not a "Christian" Forum.

    For those who are interested a 28 gauge shotgun shell carries from 3/4 to 1 oz of shot, the same as some 20 gauge shotgun shells. The muzzle velocity is 1200-1300 ft/sec, certainly enough to carry the 30 yards and penetrate cloth. Admittedly the number of pellets involved appear to be high for that range.

    He drank one beer a couple of hours in advance of hunting. He bought the $125 license, but didn't know he needed a $7 license as well. I don't think either one of those mistakes calls for extreme anger. </font>[/QUOTE]Rule one with firearms, don't drink. Period. Not even one beer. Nothing you will ever say will make me change that rule.

    Second, get yer liscenses & tags in order. We have to do it.

    I have every right to expect my V.P. to be held to the law.

    Right you are Bro. Curtis, we have every right to hold them to the same standards that you and I or anyone else is held to. This is the kind of low standards we expect from Democrats.

    No detailed investigation as to how a shotgun blast can inflict the type of injury that was done to Mr. Whittington was conducted.Law officials just took the parties involved at their word.

    Wow, this is the first time I've been lumped in with A-Pal. How odd. I think the O/P is ridiculous, just about accusing the VP of murder, or kidnapping. It's crazy, and that's all I'll say about it.

    I support Dick Cheney is just about everything he has done. But this I can't. Somehow I don't think that makes me a co-conspirator. It just means I disagree with you, O/R. But hey, it was bound to happen someday.

    Actually Brother Curtis we have agreed upon the music field and how rap had taken away or has
    stolen from muscians...I am very pro musican and those who play instruments..but it may not count
    on your list since you may be talking strictly the political realm.

    Given the venom you spew forth about the Bush administration you are a poor one to talk about vile and hatred. Giving credence to the OP of this thread is ample proof of that, but being from Arkansas you had a prime example to follow. :D

    I was unaware of that agreement. I'm glad about your stance. I am against sampling CDs to make other Cds.

    A .094 lead pellet fired from a 28 gauge shotgun from 30 yards hit his right side penetrated three layers of clothing skin and muscle slipped between ribs and the grissle holding them together then traveled a few more inches inside the ribcage through tissue to reach the heart. When tests have shown that the same load fired at the same distance would only penetrate a couple centimeters into a stark naked watermelon and would only penetrate one centimeter into a naked cornish game hen then bounced out after hitting bone.

    That nasty bruise on his chin couldn't have been caused by the plastic wadding holding the shot charge together because anyone that has actually fired a shotgun knows that a wadding rarely travels more than a few yards distance because of the way it opens up to release the shot immedately after leaving the barrel and if it did somehow travel 30 yards the velocity would be so degraded that it would be almost impossible to cause a bruise like that because at that point it would be floating like that little birdie in a game of badminton.

    Either it was a magic pellet and wad or someone is lying about the distance. I got good news and bad news. The bad news is that Mr. Whittington was involved in an unfortunate hunting accident. The good news is that Mr. Whittington is okay, badly bruised and full of little holes, but okay. The other good news (for Mr. Cheney) is that most people will just digest what ever they are told by their leaders and follow the media's misdirection while trying to debunk all their strawmen, and those that do look at the evidence and ask questions can be easily demonized and marginalized.

    Welcome to the twilight zone Rocko9, Petrel, Bro Curtis and Aslanspal. [​IMG]

    This entire story rates about a 3 on a scale of 10 for importance.

    It is entirely laughable to listen to the ridiculous twists and turns this event has taken as liberals try to make a silk purse out of a sow's ear. [​IMG]

    Live with it. Cheney will be around for 3 more years as will Bush. [​IMG]

    I don't know why I'm there! I guess that's the way it is with the twilight zone. . . *plays theme music*

    I'm consulting a medical examiner about this case. We're all CSI-wannabes, but he has actual experience. :D

    The news says that a fragment of birdshot travelled to his heart, and Gold Dragon says that is baloney and that it was due to the shock of being shot that he had a heart attack. I'm fully prepared to believe that the reporters don't know what they're talking about, since I haven't seen a doctor comment on his heart attack. At this point I doubt any shot made it through his ribcage.

    I am also supremely doubtful that he was shot from 15-20 feet, because in that case I think he'd be dead!
