POSTED: 2:45 pm EDT May 5, 2008UPDATED: 6:08 pm EDT May 5, 2008

Oldham County police said David Schmidthuber and his 14-year-old son, Steven, were hunting on private property in the 2000 block of Rebel Ridge Road about 7 a.m. Sunday when they got separated.
When the father noticed some movement in the woods, he fired a 12-gauge shotgun, accidentally killing his son, police said.


Father Kills Son in Hunting Accident After Mistaking Him for Turkey
Sunday, April 20, 2008
The Sibley County Sheriff says that a man who accidentally shot and killed his 9-year-old son while they were hunting apparently mistook the boy for a turkey.
Sheriff Bruce Ponath says that Anthony Klaseus of Belle Plaine and his son Hunter were hunting turkey about three miles west of Belle Plaine around 6:30 p.m. Saturday when Klaseus shot his son in the chest with a 12 gauge shotgun.

Accident or not they should both be charged with negligible manslaughter.
When hunting with your child he stays by your side,
you don't let him out of your sight
you don't shoot at what you cant see.
As my uncle did when I was a kid.
No wonder people call for gun controls.
Ironically Klaseus named his son Hunter, I guess he wasn't named after him.
My heartfelt sympathies to the mothers who have to live with the aftermath of these
preventable senseless tragedies.

MEMORIAL DAY SPECIAL
WINTER SOLDIER ON THE HILL

War vets testify before congress.

WHAT A WONDERFUL TRIBUTE TO THE MEN AND WOMEN SERVING IN THE ARMED FORCES.
THESE BRAVE MEN TELLING IT LIKE IT IS, ABOUT THE STUFFED SHIRT GENERALS IN THEIR SAFE, FULLY ARMORED VEHICLES WHILE THE FIGHTING MEN GET THE CRAP.
THESE SAME GENERALS AT THE MEMORIAL DAY CELEBRATION IN WASHINGTON TRIPPING OVER THEIR MEDALS.
WITH NON OTHER THAN COLON POWEL AS THE RING MASTER, THE VERY MAN RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CASUALTIES ON DISPLAY BY THE MEDIA CIRCUS.
YOU MAY RECALL IT WAS HE WHO POINTED TO THE SADAM'S WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION.

We did not belong in Iraq then and we don't belong their now.
Not one life should have been lost, not one, nor should one more soldier be killed or maimed.
At the ceremonies the media once again had the gall to show the towers falling to keep up the illusion that that is the reason we are in Iraq.

WINTER SOLDIERS ROCK, ROCK ON BROTHERS.
YOU ARE MY HEROS.
YOU DESERVE THE MEDAL OF HONOR FOR YOUR BRAVERY AND YOUR ATTEMPT TO SAVE COUNTLESS LIVES.
FOR THE FULL TRANSCRIPT OF THEIR TESTIMONY PLEASE GO TO;

May God bless you all and keep you safe.
Bring the troops home NOW

Israel reference

It seems some individual has taken offence to my comments about Israel
(GOVERNMENT, not the majority of it's peaceful, freedom loving people.)
Perhaps this individual is blind to or in league with the war criminals committing horrors
to innocent men women and children of Palestine and to cowardly to take responsibility for their actions as found to be true by an independent UNITED NATIONS probe.
But being armed with nuclear weapons the Israeli govt.feels it can ignore the rights of any and all other human beings as was once done to their innocent ancestors by another tyrant.
Thus does history repeats itself if not corrected.
