Were you ever trained to whip around in a 180 swing and fire at noises BEHIND you? I don't think so.
Team effort is fine, but the bottom line is each of us is responsible for the rounds we send down range. Unless the man was hidden behind a bush making "cooing" noises or dressed like some giant bird, I don't really see much room for excuses here.
The question I want answered is--was the man BEHIND or IN FRONT OF the line? The press seems too ignorant to press this question home. They're more concerned about getting scooped by a small local paper. Armstrong seemed to say he came up BEHIND Cheney, whereapon Cheney wheeled and shot him. If this is true, then Cheney should be facing charges right now. It's completely and totally unacceptable to swing around and fire off the line like that. It endangers anyone to your right or left, not to mention anyone behind you. If the birds flush behind you, you let them go. You don't cap off shots at anything that moves in a 360 circle in those circumstances.
