My GOSH! What kind of father does such a stupid thing? If the boy survives he should never be back with that man.

Took a brief look at the comments on the Miami Herald story. Of course, there were people on there defending the dad, and talking trash about the man who used a firearm to defend his home. Insane.

Was this some type of prank gone wrong? Like egging a house, but with paintballs instead of eggs?

I can somewhat understand a 10 year old making the mistake of thinking this was a good idea. But what the heck is wrong with the kid's dad? That adult should definitely be going to jail for child endangerment if nothing else.

At least this kid knows who is father is and is spending time with him.

That's sarcasm...
In certain extreme situations, the law is inadequate. In order to shame its inadequacy, it is necessary to act outside the law to pursue a natural justice.

I would not be surprised to find out that drive-by shootings may be a family tradition... :banghead:
