My son was shooting ducks from his car along the canal

What breed of duck?

TNT

Not a cougar-duck

Make him clean, cook and eat all the dead ducks?

Depends on your sons age. It was illegal, but not inhumane. Your neighbor is a wuss.

Spank him

Isn't that a federal crime now? Just above cheating the IRS?

Federal offense. They're migratory animals.

foofcoug

6/28/17 9:55pm

Then you add in that they were killed out of season without a license or federal duck stamp. Poaching.

foofcoug

6/28/17 9:56pm

How about shooting from a car... there's probably a fine associated with that.

SuperTank

6/28/17 9:58pm

Possibly within city limits or on private property.

foofcoug

6/28/17 9:59pm

Depending on state shooting from a car is a crime.

Supercoug

6/28/17 11:34pm

Is there a state where shooting from a car is legal? I wanna move there.

Backcountry

Probably not. I only know TX though.

Supercoug

Most states allow it if you are disabled/paralyzed. You have to get a permit tho

We were lucky police weren't called. He has hunted birds properly before

You were shocked he thought it would be fun? Or you were shocked he didn't have

Animal abuse is a sign of a serial killer.

Malathion

6/28/17 10:28pm

Slow down there on the serial killer talk. There is nothing wrong with hunting.

Backcountry

6/28/17 10:30pm

Was it closer to hunting or drive by shooting?

Malathion

6/28/17 10:33pm

Sounds like hunting out of season. We all do dumb things as kids.

Backcountry

6/28/17 10:38pm

For the record I didn't call the kid a serial killer. Based on his

Malathion

Agree on your last paragraph

Poaching isn't hunting.

Any animal that migrates is a federal offense?

TNT

If it crosses state borders, the Feds have jurisdiction.

Utah's poaching consequences...

BigYfan

let a duck shoot him

billyrust

6/28/17 9:56pm

Arm the ducks. That does seem more fair

TNT

6/28/17 9:57pm

But seriously take the gun away from him. He clearly isn't responsible enough

billyrust

6/28/17 9:58pm

sounds like poaching to me. take the gun and car, and give him probation.

PharmCoug

Call the dwr poaching hotline. Fines and imprisonment for your son,

What county was this???

bluebloodedcoug

6/28/17 10:13pm

Several offenses occured there. Poaching, shooting from road, shooting from car.

PhilPete

6/28/17 10:23pm

Another factor is the species. Many ducks in urban canals are domestic birds

Backcountry

I'm not bragging, but my dad would have been in the passenger seat.

Triggerhappybunny

they could throw him in jail, take the car and gun

Nat Gas Man

6/28/17 10:29pm

Let him run alongside the car and shoot him

Dillinger

The fact that he is hunting and not playing video games or watching comic book

I did just as bad or worse as a kid. If anyone else here says they didnt

Shoot, I did worse when I was an adult. Props to the kid for doing it while he's still a minor and it doesn't matter.

Talk to him and let that be it.

Cashmeousside

Pains me to say this, but I'd take his gun away and make him earn it back

Agreed. I think dad is plenty aware of the seriousness

Taking away guns is what commies do. Do you wanna be a commie?
