My friends ex-husband is one of those people. Zero respect for life. I made the mistake of going hunting with him after there were signs on a mutual fishing trip. While nothing he did was illegal, it was highly unethical. I’ll spare details for the squeamish, but I left the field, hiked out without filling my tag. When I got back to town, I informed her that there was something deeply wrong with that man. It took 9 years, but she’s in the process of getting him out of her life, coparenting aside.
