Long story short, a friend of mine has neighbors that complain and call the law every time he shoots. There has been multiple LEO's called out to his house for complaints against him from this neighbor. However, this neighbor has no dog in this fight as he is too far from my friends home (we are outside of city limits if this means anything), and the police have made this clear on multiple occasions.
Now here's the question:
The last LEO (Livingston Parish) that was called out, told my friend that he is to close to another neighbor, a neighbor that also shoots and is friends with my friend. The LEO said that there was an "80 year old law that was reinstated" that requires you to be 300 ft from a neighboring dwelling. However, like I said, the dwelling in question is a friend of his, and he has no problem with the shooting, and the shots are not directed at his home, and are in fact directed into a dirt pile.
Where does my friend stand here, legally? Can he shoot, with consent of the neighbor whom is "by law" preventing him from shooting;
