FUDD was someone who thinks that a 6 shot revolver is adequate for home defense.

Your comment:

"FUDD is country club skeet shooter looking down their noses at the maid who buys a Hi Point to defend herself. "

It isn't just snobbish country club skeet shooters who look down on anyone who buys a Hi Point for self defense.

Maybe later if i have time, I'll cut and past comments describing who, in their opinion, are FUDD and what makes a person FUDD
