Been here for months. Supporting a known violater is a bad look for sportsman. Both parties can be in the wrong, it's pretty simple.
I agree that both sides can be wrong and It looks like this is a case of a situation where both sides could have handled things better, however, one side looked like an absolute crazy person and the other not so much.
Also, I don't know about you all, but when I was 18 I was a bit of an idiot. That doesn't mean I get excused from the things I had done, but I know better as I got older. All of the things this kid has done are bonehead mistakes. He set up in a field and peppered someones house, not smart, but he also wasn't maliciously lobbing shells at the neighbors place. Intent does matter a bit when it comes to judging someone. And the rest of the stuff he's done are dumb oversight things as well, not having a license, too many lines, no ans sticker. Should he get in trouble for those things? Sure, let the punishment match the crime, but should we judge every situation he is in based on those previous mistakes, I don't think so.
I got a ticket a couple of years ago for not having my boat light up in time. I also got a driving ticket for using my phone (Don't use your phone in minot while driving if you don't want a $200 ticket...). Do those things doom me in the future from getting fair judgment in a situation where I might not be at fault?
A bad look for sportsmen is losing your everloving mind on another group of hunters and acting like a child. I've had this kind of thing happen to me a handful of times over the last 10 or so years and it's good to see someone getting the spotlight acting like that.
