Ok, the VP 1st. It was an accident plain and simple. Was there some level of negligence? Perhaps but from both parties. Both parties made errors which supported the chances of an accident happening.

2nd, the girls in the car. Supposed they hit the deer and it came through the windshield and killed the passenger. Who's at fault? Driver couldn't swerve to the left because of the truck, couldn't go right because of the 1000 ft cliff and she couldn't stop in time because she was doing 55mph (the speed limit) and the deer just darted out in the road. Who's at fault? That is a clear example of "No Fault".

Any of you guys actually handle real firearms? (No, paintball guns don't count). Next time you go into the field or the range, watch others. You can see people making mistakes all the time. Fingers in the trigger guard when not on target, pointing a loaded weapon in a direction other than downrange, Getting a stovepipe and not knowing what to do 1st, shooting at target without realizing the line of fire travel once past the target....etc, etc. Both Cheney and Whittington are responsible to the events leading up to the shooting.
