Zumbo on Nugent Forum

Yuri Orlov notified me of this in a comment in an earlier post. I'd have put this up sooner, but I just got in from work.

From Zumbo, on the Nugent board: "I’m learning that many of my pals own AR-15’s and similar firearms and indeed use them for hunting. I was totally unaware that they were being used for legitimate hunting purposes."

Apparently, he's still confused about the purpose of the Second Amendment.

Yep, I saw that too. No sale.

Last night I posted without quite having gotten where I was trying to go: until (and unless) he realizes that hunting does not own a monopoly on "legitimacy" of gun ownership and use, his apologies will continue to make things worse.

I don't have the patience to wade through the entire thread on Nugent's board--does anyone know if he finally got that (or at least pretended to)?

I’m sorry but I don’t buy his so-called apology for one second. He said what he felt the first time and now he is just backpedalling because he knows his job is now on the line. The damage that this man has done to our gun rights will reverberate for some time to come. This man has lost all credibility in my eyes and if I never hear his name or read anything from him from now on it will be too soon.
