    I don’t expect a kid to do much of anything after shooting a person, intruder or not, not mock them for being in pain of a literal bullet wound.

    Granted if the parents taught him how to use a firearm they should also have taught him how to use a medical pack because accidents can and do happen with firearms and he should be able to patch up himself or someone else if an accident does happen.

      No civilian should be approaching a wounder intruder. They could have a concealed weapon like a knife or a gun.

      When the intruder broke in, they probably had a tough guy attitude and that attitude changed real quick when they felt pain.

        I never said the kid should have actually gone over and given any kind of first aid, but he should still be taught basic first aid if his parents are teaching him how to use a gun.

        It’s still psychopathic to mock someone who you just shot.

          I was taught first aid in cub scouts by that age. I wouldn’t have done anything to help a threatening adult

          I don’t think I would have shouted insults at him, but I wasn’t raised on games where you shoot people
