Baker County Sheriff's deputies say a 19-year-old shot his half-brother in the chest.
Authorities are still investigating the Tuesday night shooting, but say they believe it was accidental. The younger boy was taken to a hospital in serious condition.
Sheriff's spokesman Gerald Gonzalez tells The Florida Times-Union (http://bit.ly/18HcEcX ) that investigators will likely bring charges against the teen because he has previous felony convictions. He was arrested on several charges including possession of a fire arm by a felon.
Now that's a sure-fire way to get arrested when you shoot someone by accident - being a felon. And notice when that's the case, the negligent gun owner is charged as such. This is the only thing that distinguishes them from their lawful gun-owning counterparts.
Being a felon is a huge difference from not being a felon. The fact that you can't figure this out shows why you are losing.
