Dress Like Skunk for Haloween, Get Shot

[LLL]

A little girl was fighting for her life early Monday after she was shot outside a Halloween party by a relative who mistook her costume for a skunk.

Police in western Pennsylvania's New Sewickley Township said the 9-year-old girl was dressed in black with a black hat for the Saturday evening party.

As the two to three dozen guests milled about, the girl went to hide on the edge of a hill.

It was past 8 p.m. and the sun had long set. A relative spotted the dark figure in the distance, mistook it for a skunk and fired his shotgun, said Officer Greg Carney with the township police.

The girl was hit in the neck, back and arm - and flown to Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh, about 30 miles away. There, she remained in the intensive care unit, Carney said.

Police will determine later Monday whether they will charge the shooter, whom they did not name. Nor did they say how he was related to the girl.

They did add, however, that the man had not been drinking.

That's some funny shit.

You think it's funny that a 9 year old is in ICU because of some idiot?

I'm always looking for a good laugh, but sorry, i'm failing to see the humor here.

Dumb motherfuckers are always funny, even when innocent little girls have to pay the ultimate price.

I wonder how having every American packing a weapon would stop this sort of nonsense? Anyone from the far right out there?

Im not from the far right, but who ever said it would stop this sort of nonsense? This has nothing to do with CC. This act get's filed under - You can't fix stupid. The guy is firing a weapon in the dark, what more can you do?

I agree. I only shoot at something if I'm really really sure it's a skunk.

Pretty sure an arrow would have killed her outright.

I'm Canadian & agree with some form of gun control but how does that stop stupidity like this? I'm pretty sure any idiot can buy and own a shotgun. You don't have to pass an IQ test to be eligible to own one. If he had done it with a machine gun or semi automatic pistol then yes, gun control would help prevent that.

This is what happens when you dress up for Halloween 10 days early

But then the Redcoats would just march right in...and give us better health care.

Obviously if the white trash guy had a reasonable belief that the skunk was armed he would not have shot at it. Frankly, I am appalled by the Marxist left wing liberals and their agenda to disarm America's wildlife.

There is a 1940's era Germany joke here about a guy who gave everyone nationalized healthcare so he could make sure certain people of a certain ethnic heritage who went to get healthcare would instead be turned into medical experiments or just whisked away to never be heard from again. But hey, what could possibly go wrong this time? Oh, almost forgot, step 2 of his brilliant idea to wipe out an entire group of people was to take away their guns.
