Much as I agree with Doc on this one, what happens if this guy misses and hit one of the riders. But then I'm one of those lily livered gun hating Canucks.

Cap'n Bob, I share your sentiments - although around here it's snowmobilers. Unfortunately the cops and courts aren't as enlightened as we are.

How about this guys; I have known that man all my life and he is a drunk! So it is only a miracle he did not shoot anybody.
That man should be spending more time thinking about how much of a screw up he has been in his life and to his family, then he should worrying about a family just having a good time together on an ATV. I hope he never carries another gun in his life ...keep sippin on that beer can Alton!
