Mar 2013

you make me smile. as long as you and people like you are out there, I will have no trouble with the general public not liking me or my guns. You'd be appalled at how many people are waiting for me to take shooting once the weekends get nice, first time shooters, male and female are becoming very interested in guns. And from my experience once they see the ease and enjoyment that sport shooting offers, they are hooked for life. I offer them the outdoors, the satisfaction gained by improved skills, the feeling of accomplishment, pride in overcoming fear and bias, the joy of discovering unknown skills. All without any RW political dis info. What do you have to offer? Lets see.. Divisive rhetoric, Classism, regionalist bigotry, mockery, suggestive and pitiful psyche evals, fear, and blatant hypocrisy. Yeah, hearts and minds, you are losing.

You and those like you do more for the NRA than a dozen ads of bikini girls with machine guns, you empower the NRA, not me.
as for your Sig? bless your heart.
Simplicity is the safe refuge of the foolish.
