Man some of you guys need some Pamprin! First of all this drunk deserved what he got. The unfortunate thing is that the family even though justified will still suffer and will have it hanging over their heads forever. Very few people could ever take a life and feel no remorse. The sport/hobby of hunting in which this family looked forward to every year like the rest of us, will never be the same.
Nobody forced this guy to drink and nobody forced him to point a gun at this guy. He did it on his own and it from the sounds of it it he may have lived longer than many others would have let him live.
