rodent infestation

[flashback]

Didn't realize grey squirrels eat meat too. Have one chewing on a deer leg....

Very true and they're not above munching on baby birds either.

I once watched a crow eat a baby bird alive. It was sad to see but it’s the cycle of life.

In regards to .22 range and/or damage possibilities… back in the late 1990’s, I had a friend draw jury duty on a murder case. A woman had been shot in the head while boating. A couple of young men had been target shooting in the direction of the river using a thicket as a backstop. The jury was taken to the location during the trial and my buddy said you couldn’t even see the river from where they were shooting but ballistics confirmed one of their rifles was the murder weapon and they had admitted to being out there at the time the woman was shot. A very sad accident and a young man went to prison for it.

That accident changed the way I think about firearm safety.

Murder?
Murder requires intent
Manslaughter would be more likely
