I didn't finish my lunch this afternoon, but no one yelled at me because some starving kids in Africa could have used the scraps of my tuna fish sandwich that I ended up throwing away. I say he can do what he wants with his own property.
At least shooting it was quick and to the point...

In the original video, there is a large building in the background that looks like a school, dorm, something ... There is also vehicular traffic on the roads behind him. Discharging a firearm in an unprotected place, with no protection against ricochet, no safe area in case of a rogue shot, etc. and no life-or-death situation (the only time, IMHO, shooting without safety gear is reasonable) is irresponsible.
What he does with his own property is his business, I agree, though I think there were much better choices that would also teach lessons.
