One community member remarked that the individual's antics were "beyond irresponsible." In response, another Redditor wrote:

"It was completely on purpose too. Idk (I don't know) if that even makes it better or worse. Like, on one hand, it almost feels better because he was 'in control' of the situation and it's not like someone was just accidentally shooting rounds. So there's not really a chance Adin's foot was accidentally going to get shot off."
