What Zumbo said was stupid and wrong but it amazes me how vicious we on the right become when someone steps off the reservation for even one split second. We attack like a pack of jackels and that person is, from that point on, dead to us. Zumbo isn't the only one this has happened to, just the latest.

I do believe there is value in forgiveness, but forgiveness to have real value it must be earned. Zumbo's apology was much better than the normal "apology" given after such faux pas, but a mere apology is not sufficient for such a grave misstep as Zumbo's. I would suggest that a good start on the road to reconciliation would be for Mr. Zumbo to publicly repudiate HCI et al. for putting out such propaganda and then using the fact that he fell for it as evidence of its truthfulness. The simple fact of the matter is that the AWB (and nearly all "gun control" is predicated on a pack of lies, and someone needs to call HCI to task on that. Zumbo right now would actually be in a good position to do precisely that.
