I guess the question becomes, in this day and age, which is an 11-yr old kid in the Deep South more likely to master: Photoshop or a gun?

Oh no ! They shot Harvey ! :eek:

Actually, he shot "Fred." From today's news story:

"The 1,051-pound hog, shot and killed by 11-year-old Jamison Stone and the subject of a world-wide Web firestorm over the photo's authenticity, really is...

Fred.

That's "Fred" the pig, and according to Rhonda and Phil Blissitt their humongous hog escaped on April 29, four days before it was killed, according to the Star newspaper."

Phil Blissitt purchased the pig for his wife as a Christmas gift in December of 2004.

Aaahhhh... Romance is alive and well chez Blissitt.

Now I believe it.

"The big boar was hunted inside a large, low-fence enclosure and fired upon 16 times by Stone, who struck the animal nearly a half-dozen times during the three-hour hunt."

I have no problem at all with hunting, but this tame animal deserved a quicker, more repectful death.
