Even where it is legal to shoot the minimum safe distance is considered 150 yards from residential homes, places of business and associated out buildings(pretty much any structure, though I would hate to be shot in my garden or going to get the mail or have my kids shot while playing under a tree). The Sheriff will not enforce 150 yard law at all. This means that politicians will not go against gun owners. So there, I linked my gripe to Accountability, how about enforcing basic laws?
