Blind hunt
A bill may be filed in Texas to allow blind people to shoot animals.
Republican representative Edmund Kuempel, the bill’s sponsor, wants blind hunters to be allowed to go shooting with the aid of a sighted person.
He said: "This opens up the fun of hunting to additional people, and I think that’s great.
"I’ve seen this on TV before, when they’re taking target practice. When they aim the gun, the guide tells them, aim two inches higher or two inches lower and you’re on the target, and you’re off and running." Under current Texan law, the use of laser sights, spotlights and headlights is prohibited in hunting.
Hunters using laser sights - which make animals stand still when the light shines on them - would have to carry proof that they are legally blind.
