- yes he was wearing ALL orange, more than required. Full blaze orange coat, pants and hat- no camouflage or any other ridiculous things mentioned
- everyone in the gang had their possession and acquisition licenses and all required safety training, in fact some people were or are volunteer firefighters.
- no one tripped
- NO poaching
- and NO one was drinking either, as I am sure people are wondering that too
It was a one in a million shot. Through thick brush and trees, I don't even know how the bullet got to him as the shot was fired fairly far away. Sometimes things just don't make sense, and speculating on something that you have no idea about just hurts the people involved. Simply put, it was a horrible accident, sometimes accidents do happen no matter what kind of precautions are taken. So please, before judging too quickly, take a moment and put yourself in someone's else shoes. Sometimes bad things happen to good people. David was a good guy, a loving father and a wonderful husband.
Rest in peace David. Me and your boys will always love you.
