Tragic & needless accident--father shoots/kills his seven year old son

[6shooter]

Very very sad. Will be hard to live with one's self after a very costley mistake.

 

[LightningCrash]

I honestly don't think I could.

Me either. I can't even begin to imagine.


Two seconds of stupidity and your son's life is gone.

I cant even deal with this... just the thought of it brings tears to my eyes... And a knot in my stomach...

As a father, this story is hard to read. I can not even imagin what this father is going through.

He probably will before its over... I would have to consider it I think.

That has to be the worst nightmare a parent can live through...what a tragedy. Now I need to go hug and love on my son for a bit...

This story is tragic for sure. I have three kids and losing any of them would be devastating. I'm sure that Dad wouldn't think twice about trading his life for his son's.

I don't like reading these stories but we all need to be reminded from time to time. I've heard stories of people with far more experience and knowledge than I have doing something stupid because they got complacent. Please don't let this be any one on this board going forward.

I honestly don't think I could.

Neither me.
