How can you call yourself a police officer if you shoot a snake in a tree knowing the size of a snake plus the probability if you hit the snake of the round stopping there... I know the person identified feels terrible BUT bad choices equal terrible outcomes this guy better get thrown away for a while

thats horrible

Throwing him in jail isn't going to help anything but what choice is there when he was that grossly negligent?

Umm, Brit, I didn't see the article blaming guns. I'd say they place the responsibility for this where it belongs:

"it appears the fatal shot was fired by the officer"
