Thompson & Huckabee Fire on Press
Were the candidates really firing on press? Yes - but the difference is that Huckabee erroneously fired a shotgun over the heads of the campaign press corps and Fred with a forthright friendly nature fired a friendly snowball at a reporter. The first could have resulted in the deadly end to a candidates career, whereas the second may have gained the respect of at least one reporter.
Jim Tankersley in The Swamp reported on the "Huckabee's muzzle control problem" where Huckabee accidentally fired his shotgun over the heads of reporters. A rather bad thing for any hunter let alone and "experienced one." Tankersley identifies some consequences for hunters if they had made this potential fatal error. If I had made this mistake (obviously without press) while Pheasant hunting as a teen, after a few choice words from my dad, I would have lost my my hunting privileges for a year. And if I had joked about it, the consequences would have been drastic.
In a separate incident, Fred Thompson in good natured fun defended a staffer in a snowball fight. Friendly snowball fights were always acceptable in my youth. Video below:

For Mike Huckabee:
Gun Control may not be a good political idea, but it is a personal virtue every gun owner should have.
