No, you f#@!&*g idiots, of course you don't "hunt with it." [Read]
No mere--what do they call you blokes?--subject can buy one of these, which I thought was the way you lot liked it. And it has nothing to do with the Giffords shooting. Or Carolyn McCarthy's bill. Why you'd stretch so to tie those in tells us all we need to know about Daily Mail reporters.
I swear, I think all gun events ought to only admit "Authorized Journalists" who can present some sort of verifiable non-stupidity/integrity credentials. I know the shows thrive on publicity and all, but letting these morons in doesn't do them any favors.
" "Authorized Journalists" who can present some sort of verifiable non-stupidity/integrity credentials."
ReplyDeleteIn my 30 years with the media, I've personally met a couple.
Literally. Two.
The overwhelming majority go into journalism to save the world from itself. To SHAPE public opinion, not to report on it.
The two I refer to had held honest careers previously, and were not straight outa journalism school. They knew something of the real world.
Oh, I see the national Society of Professional Journalists is discontinuing their Helen Thomas award. Her anti-Israel, pro-Palestinian (official government: terrorists Hamas and the PLO) remarks were STARTING to get too embarrassing, after a loooong time.
Did this breathless writer even attend? I don't think people are showing up looking for bargains on ammo as they depicted it. Isn't SHOT for industry only (i.e. shops, manufacturers)?
ReplyDeleteI just had to leave them a comment:
ReplyDelete"'What are you meant to hunt with THAT?'
"Tyrants. Wanna-be dictators. If they decide to push us that far. We rather hope not.
"Side note: I've noticed a few "phallic-compensation" sorts of comments. Funny thing; of all the very many gun owners I've known personally around the world, none ever expressed any sexual fixation on weaponry. The only people I see and hear obsessively making that comparison are those who don't think people should have weapons. Since they equate the two, I suppose that means they don't think people should have sexual organs; which suggests they lack such and want to castrate everyone else out of revenge.
"You may have neither my firearms nor my penis, you pathetic androgynes."
Dr. Oz says the average penis of the North Amerian male is five inches. We've all been in the locker room, so we know it's true that we are almost all average or above-average (not that we spend a lot of time comparing...). This "compensating" crap is really embarrassing to those who continue to shovel it, more than anything. It is an obsession that borders on mental illness. But if you are INCAPABLE of shame, hey.
ReplyDeleteI told one statist he was embarrassing himself. His reply was, "I'LL decide when I'm embarrassed, if you don't mind." He didn't even get it.
And, "every terrible implement of the soldier," as Tenche Coxe explained.
ReplyDeleteAll of the penile replacement nonsense is mere projection.
ReplyDeleteLiberals in general and icky-britts in particular have severe doubts about their manliness.
It's a problem most gun owners can't fathom. We are comfortable in ourselves, men and the ladies I've meet.
You can't enjoy something like the SHOT show in England. In fact, you can be arrested for defending yourself from thugs. If you think thugs in this country (USA) have more rights than you do, they really have more rights than the average bloke in the UK.
ReplyDeleteThere are no real men left in England. They have all made the final transformation into sheep.
