Do you think the boys should be punished for this?




8 and 9 y/o boys in South Carolina are charged with involuntary manslaughter after they killed a 62 y/o man riding a TRACTOR after they used a HUNTING RIFLE to shoot in his direction!!

They killed Danny Andrw Smith as he rode his tractor in a field near Westminster who was cutting grass when he was shot once in the back and died

Both boys shot in his direction where one of them hit him

They were charged as juveniles in Family Court and their names are not released and by South Carolina Law are too young to be kept at juvenile hall and were released to their parents

A .22 caliber rifle was used to kill Smith and police will not say how the boys got the rifle or why they shot at him

Smith's wife, Marilyn found him slumped over in the driver's seat of th tractor after it ran into the woods and into struck a tree

His sister Vickie Wilbacks said "It's a very difficult time because we haven't gotten over losing our parents 3 days apart and now i've lost the only brother i have"

She said her brother was "bush hogging" her parents proeprty when he was shot as they are devastated and heartbroken to lose a precious man who never harm anybody

His neighbor suggested the shooting might have been an accident and that it was a shock to the community that this happened.

Smith was a tired US Engine Valve and served as a volunteer fireman with the Cleveland Fire Dept

His greatest passion was riding a Harley

Do you think the boys or their parents should be arrested for this?

Parents (or at least the gun owner) should definitely be charged for negligence. There's no situation in which a pair of 8-year-olds should be free to play with a gun.

They're 8 and 9, so it doesn't make a lot of sense to do much there because it's highly unlikely that they're fully aware of their actions. However, the parents should be investigated for leaving the kids unsupervised and there are some serious questions when children are able to get their hands on a hunting rifle.

The kids might need to go some kind of program (if only for psychological evaluation and counseling) and there's a reasonably good chance that the parents should be charged with something

If you don't know that shooting someone with a hunting rifle is bad by age 8 then you need special treatment away from society.

Damn, doesn't South Carolina have stand your ground laws?

If so the boys could just claim they feared for their lives and get off Scott free!

There are many ways I would never want to die. Getting shot by an 8 year old who probably did a Fortnite dance right afterwards is definitely one of them.
