Agreed on not a great idea. Did it hurt someone? No. Pay for the damage and let's all move on.

So you would like to see him in jail? His guns taken?

What's the solution in your opinion?

If he walked out his front door with a gun and fired it without reasonable justification, yes, he should be charged and, if the judge decides, jailed.

Regardless of his criminal guilt, he has clearly demonstrated an inability to be a responsible gun owner, and should have his PAL revoked.
