Who is Fred LeBrun, and who elected him as our moral arbiter?

He has an OpEd entitled deseretnews.com | Don't minimize Cheney's culpability, reemphasizing all the snooty silliness of the MSM:

Of course, it was an accident; no one should dispute that. But that is an explanation for what happened, not a justification. People are in jails all over the country for accidents. Not that I'm suggesting Dick Cheney belongs in jail, not over this at least.

Oh? I want to hear what he thinks Cheney does belong in jail for. Come on Fred, spit it out! I can tell something about this is really bugging you. What is it? Or is this just the generalized loathing of the administration that pervades media types?

Or maybe you just want to flaunt your superior knowledge of all things connected to bird hunting. I mean what's the deal with detailing what the hunting laws in New York are? Yeah, those Red States are sooo lax in their licensing laws. And the point about the dogs? Were there dogs around? Expensive dogs? This guy really sounds like a first class bore to go hunting with. Or maybe he just doesn't hunt much in Red States. We're too uncouth:

I don't know of a single gentleman's hunting club up here in the effete Northeast, no matter how Republican, that would let Cheney in to shoot after this incident. He'd be confined to the bar and pool tables.

What we have here is the original zero-tolerance event as far as the hunting community is concerned. That's how seriously we take it.

Yeah, New York has no shootings whatsoever, right? At least, not with $10,000 28 gauge Italian shotguns.
