"Armstrong, owner of the Armstrong Ranch where the accident occurred, said Whittington was bleeding after he was shot and Cheney was very apologetic."

This is why I tend to despise public press releases. This comment is inane and almost downright nonsensical. No shit the guy was bleeding after he was plugged full of buckshot, and I should damn well hope that Cheney would at least make a concious effort to appear apologetic after he shot the guy. Sheesh... why can't people just speak plainly anymore?

buckshot vs birdshot

Note: it was BIRDSHOT not buckshot , if you shot a bird with buckshot you would not have anything but a pile of feathers if that!!!!! sounds like the uninformed press at work again!!!!!

Ah I see. My mistake. I wasn't aware that there was a significant difference between the two. Tis well.
