This is a bad one on so many levels, I hope its not going to be fuel for so many possible problems.

I can easily envisage the scenario:  The dad goes out with his son, teaching him how to hunt, and using a 22 rifle to hunt guinea fowl with.  They see the guineas, creep up on them and the boy takes a shot.  From behind some bushes they hear a loud shout, and go to investigate.  There sits the father's loyal farm worker, with a bullet wound. He was not visible and no one expected him to be there.  A great tragedy for all involved, and their families.

Having taken my kids out to hunt and shoot many times, I can see myself in their shoes. Freak accidents can and do happen. Not good for them, but also for all of us hunters and gun owners...

This is so sad, the trauma it will cause for everyone. So sad.
