I own guns and have been trained to use them. Anyone who has training knows that you do not fire them in a residential area. Also if you don't like an animal in your neighborhood call animal control. The owner is guilty on both counts.

IDIOT, "neighbor was several hundred feet away". If the neighbor was several hundred feet away. The moron with the gun was aiming fairly high. A .38 cal. will drop several inches in that distance, so was he aiming at the cat or his neighbor?

yeah too bad he missed the cat. I'm wondering why they are charging him with assault if the shooting was accidental.

I'm with Butch, the IQ of at least one of these individuals is not very high and a terrible shot

Some of you are so cold hearted and cruel minded. Maybe god should have put you on earth as a stray animal. I guess it is the poor little cats fault this so called intelligent human likes to play with guns. I would bet money the cat wasn't bothering him, it just gave him an excuse to shoot his big ole gun. It sounds like he needs the practice but they do make targets if you have the need to play with your toy. I do think the gun is like a toy for this man. And he needs to learn when to use it ,why to use, and how to use it.

The problem is they let brainless people buy them. No test for real stupid and owning guns.
