That's truly the point. The guy is not an "idiot".
No, he is an idiot. As you said, he is "an elderly man who has been through quite a few health problems and shouldn't really be hunting because of his condition". It's not like golf, if you f*ck up, you could kill someone. Anyone who puts another person's life in danger because they "don't want to give up" a hobby is an idiot. I just can't help but laugh how typical your reply is. He only shot someone, it's not like he killed him. People get shot all the time. No wonder the US has such a rediculously high amount of accidental shootings.
