Inanimate objects cannot be violent, people can (and are.) But "shooter" in that context is especially offensive. Those animals are killers, not shooters. The folks I hang out with at the range are shooters. We must not let the enemies of freedom confuse the discussion.Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11006015336607998634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5349428160142078931.post-89963576410000914722014-06-15T13:44:15.115-04:002014-06-15T13:44:15.115-04:00Every single attack on freedoms comes from the Pro...Every single attack on freedoms comes from the Progressive idea that freedoms come from man. They especially feel that the right to keep and bear arms is a privilege granted by the gov't, or society, or ...whatever they feel will advance their cause.<br /><br />I see the mistake about the 2nd granting the right from both sides all of the time. You should see the heads spin when I tell the gun control group that repealing the 2nd would do nothing to REMOVE the right.....but only government protection from abuse. And then tell them that such abuse is tyranny...... which is why the 2nd is there in the first place and that there might be consequences of doing such.Cargosquidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15109858929179841075noreply@blogger.com
