I read about two geniuses who thought hay bales were sufficient backstop for a .30-06. Their bullets impacted their house too. Came out the other side... D'oh! Not part of the gun culture. When I shoot my recurve and my longbow, I stand near the house and shoot out into the yard. It seems the sensible way, but what do I know? My county wants to prohibit backyard archery too. We'd need a 600-foot buffer between our property and our neighbors' houses. There's about 100 acres of woods behind my backstop. I declare that sufficient. We may have an ... argument.
"Restrict the POSSESSION..." Home searches coming soon? BRING IT.

Mr. Codrea, I hold you personally responsible for the brain cells now screaming in anguish after I read that link.
ReplyDeleteGood God. 'Compound bow loophole', indeed.
Since they already ban rubber bands, I am sure that pea shooters and spitballs are next.
ReplyDeleteFor the children, of course.
"the chief expressed concerns after a resident recently asked whether he could use a compound bow in the village."
ReplyDeleteASKED. Presumably to use it on his own property.
ASKED.
Is that resident learning yet?
