Jim Zumbo Letter to the U.S. Senate Oppsing a Ban on "Assualt Weapons"

Well, he's trying to redeem himself. Gotta give him that much, though we need to see more like this from him.

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

I still don't think Zumbo has gotten it, all he seems to believe now is that it's OK to use "black rifles" for hunting afterall. "THE 2ND AMENDMENT HAS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO ABOUT HUNTING!" It's about the lamb having a way to defend itself from the wolves. The Gun-rights movement and NRA and GOA will spend years correcting all the trouble that Mr. Zumbo has caused. If he spends the rest of his life fighting for the 2nd, then maybe he should get forgiveness on his deathbed.

Good letter.

Mr. Zumbo has paid a large price for his earlier mistake. Sometimes a heavy price is necessary to truly learn from a mistake. I hope the best for Mr. Zumbo in the future.

It has to smart having his own words used against him.
I doubt though that his new words will be read into the Record.

I saw the show he was on with Ted Nugent at Ted's Texas ranch. I think he has seen the light, at least he saying and doing the right things!

I was one of those loud voices that condemed him and I said that his "apology" was cheap talk in the face of the tremendous personal loss his comments generated. I was wrong. He means it.

It's too soon to say. So far it's just more words; let's see if he puts his money where his mouth is.

Remember that he described his fellow American gun owners as *terrorists*. He still has a lot of correction to make.
