    This is a circular annual discussion.
    A cynic might suggest that by condemning others we feel more secure in ourselves. "I would never do that"...."yeah, right"
    I would prefer though that it leaves us feeling more vulnerable, more less perfect, and more likely that we could make the same mistake. That way we remain alert to our our imperfections, and in the absence of absolute vigilance we could quite easily make the same terrible mistake.

    I can only hope that none of us or anyone we know, hunt with or are related to ever experience a tragedy such as this..... We can only wish the lad shot and the family all the best and the best of luck for a full and healthy recovery , then and only then can we hope that they come out of this ordeal intact as a family and explain to the hunting fraternity and the public what happened and put the story straight....... If we can learn from this then we are all better equipped.
