Assault Rifles For Hunters? (by Jim Zumbo-Gun Grabber)
Hunting with Zumbo ^ | February 16, 2007 | Jim Zumbo

Posted on 02/18/2007 11:32:08 AM PST by TYVets

I call them "assault" rifles, which may upset some people. Excuse me, maybe I'm a traditionalist, but I see no place for these weapons among our hunting fraternity. I'll go so far as to call them "terrorist" rifles.

Watch how bored Schumer is in the video.

I would like to see his face at the end of her testimony to congress.

Schumer is a doctrinaire Marxist.............for everybody BUT himself......because somebody has got to lead the peasants(us).

Just like Hillary.

It appears that Zumbo's mea culpa was a day late, and a dollar short : )

Interestingly enough, that video of Stepanie Huff testifying before congress, that is on washingtonceasefire website shows as being edited today. Now it's only about 5 seconds long and only says, "Not only do I not represent the NRA, I am not a member"....then it cuts out.....ha....caught with their pants down.

I'd better go and get that Ruger .223 Ranch Rifle I saw before they're banned

"A friend" told me that the stainless model is sweet. Plus, my "friend" has lots of different size mags for it, which I'm told are a lot of fun.

I have "a friend" that says his stainless model is sweet, but SkyDancer likes the blued finish better.

That wasn't a mea culpa, that was a "I'm sorry I got caught, but I still mean what I said."

The one good thing he said - before everything he posted got pulled - was he's going hunting with ARs with Ted Nugent. He hasn't retracted his insults, but he's at least opening up to evaluating whether he was wrong.

In a month or so we'll see if there's a real mea culpa.

Those things have horrible accuracy. I never saw one person get hit with one throughout the entire A-Team show.

I personally accept Jim Zumbo's appology. Jim has been an advocate of gun and hunter's rights for many years. I doubt that there is anyone writing on this board that has not put his/her foot in his/her mouth at sometime in his/her life. Jim is a dedicated hunter, sportsman and all around good guy. So lay off.....let the first person who has not sinned cast the first stone!

"As a public we are so underarmed against a government that could become fascist, that even assault weapons would be largley ineffective against the military weapons of today."

I read your post and thought of one of my favorite threads that I have ever read on FreeRepublic. Here it is: http://www.freerepublic.com/forum/a38fcb918771f.htm
