Court documents said anti-terrorism agents keep an eye on the gun range because the informant says it's known as a militia training center.
But Faire claims the word "militia" is just a part of an inside joke. He says his group is a local chapter of Project Appleseed, a nonprofit organization dedicated to teaching marksmanship and preserving gun rights. [More]
Yeah, those are some dangerous hombres there.
Just more bigotry against gun owners, gun ranges, and that thing the Founders deemed as being necessary to the security of a free state.
I guess if you don't intend to allow a free state, all that becomes unnecessary.
The controlling bastards wanted to shut the range down so they decided to smear them as rightwing extremists. And note the convenient "undercover informant." There was one of those tied up with von Brunn, too:
Todd Blodgett, a former White House aide who worked as an informant within white supremacist groups...Hmmm...
Anyway, I guess society will be safer if gun owners don't practice. And also if we don't have any gun owners.
They're just going to keep coming after us, aren't they?
Anybody know anything about this "Andrew Gray"?

Sighs, Well, I guess ifn I cain't shoot at the range no more, Ima gonna hafta go shoot somwheres else.....All I gotta do is imagine a target on whatever and ........Pink mist? What the hell is pink mist? Oh,..........
ReplyDeleteDon't know about these guys,but I was at a minishootonce. There were a couple of guys who stayed at the end of the line. They didn't mix and the regulars didn't talk to them. My wife was taking pics and these two blokes shied from the camera. Hmmm...
ReplyDeleteboth times i've gone to an appleseed, there's small charter planes doing low flyovers once or twice during the day. no airports nearby except military ones.
ReplyDeleteif all you were going to do was count heads, and then decide for yourselves what the intentions in those heads actually are, i guess an overhead glance or two would suit you.
Reminds me of the Morongo Basin Militia and Yacht Club I heard about when I first moved here - in the middle of the Mojave Desert. Just a small group of shooters with a satirical sense of humor, but these days would likely be subject to govt scrutiny, surveillance, and all sorts of ugliness.
ReplyDeleteI guess the lack of humor among the overseers is why humor can be such an effective foil against their intentions.
"society will be safer if gun owners don't practice. "
ReplyDeleteWell, hell yes! I think they make too big of a deal out of that 'directed fire' stuff.
Just spray and pray, right? Hostage situation, or home invasion, carjacking or rapist escaping into a crowd - just spray lead and copper at anything that moves until your mag is empty. Or whip that 12 gauge out and bang away until your feet are slipping in the blood. Yeah, THAT'S the ticket!

ReplyDeleteFeebs or BATFU perhaps?
(Were they lousy shots?)
by the way, who shot that target front and center in the article picture? boy, you better not let fred see that.
ReplyDeleteOther militia training centers: Boston Common, Lexington Green, the courthouse lawn and town square of Everywhere, USA.
ReplyDeleteMilitia member lists: your local telephone book.
Watch out, paintball and AirSoft fans and other "gun gamers." Yes, even you, skeet-er. Learning to kill moving targets...
And women named "Millie Shaw," beware. The NSA phone call analysis software is working overtime, and isn't perfect.
Mr. Gray seems to have a lucrative and satisfying career with the federal government.
