After reading this story I thought of the title to that other thread. I think it's fitting.

She was going to a holloween party. She dressed in black and white, she was going as a skunk. This wasn’t a costume, just clothes. It appears she did a GREAT job because a (not drunk) relative thunked she was a real skunk and shot her with a shotgun he kept at the ready! She’s in the hospital, but will live.
Ok, let’s take a look at this. Let’s say she had the bestest skunk costume in the history of smelly rodent costumes. Ok, you’re the relative looking out in the yard and see a skunk. Besides romanticizing them, what else do you do to a skunk besides shoot them? After getting your gun you line the skunk up in the sites and ready your shot. The fact that this skunk is not a 6 pound skunk. This skunk must weigh 60 pounds!! Holy crap is that a big skunk. It also appears to walk totally upright…..like a human….in a costume…..around holloween.
BAM!!!!!

Leindecker says the man hadn't been drinking

I find this hard to believe. Rednecks will be rednecks, but even the slightly drunk sort know better than this.

Article says he hadn't been drinking...LSD would be a hell of a thing to take around Halloween, but it could explain this...

Look... you don't wear antlers at Halloween because you will be shot - it's just too close to deer season. Why anyone would allow a child to dress in brown or black and roam around in the open is beyond me. They clearly must be from somewhere else. Maybe in other places you have stuff like "progress" or "thinking" - but this was in western PA. If it is in your yard and black... you shoot and then say "skunk" to cover your ass.
