Only if they know how to load and handle a shotgun which I doubt. Hey, Harry how does this Remington work. It don't shave so well! LMAO

Plenty of people up in NY are gun owners and know how to properly use them. There are numerous shooting ranges in the new paltz area which are always busy. A father teaching his son how to shoot in that part of NY isnt uncommon. I live just north of there.. almost everyone knows how to use a gun.. most families that I know have at least one gun. Some families up here, like mine, have many. I support their idea to form a group that shows an emthusiasm of firearm ownership.. however, I dont think walking around SUNY New Paltz campus with shotguns is the best of ideas. There are ranges within 10-20 minutes of the campus where they can shoot and enjoy them selves with out having to worry about getting thier balls broken. If any Freepers life in the New Paltz area and want a great place to shoot clays... I highly suggest you try Mid Hudson Sporting Clays (about 10 mins from New Paltz). If any Freepers are local and interesting in shooting there, feel free to PM me.

These students are reaching out for help and I do not believe they ever cared about anything but the story. The press jumped all over it like bees after honey. I am a mere 13 miles from New Paltz and it is a quaint college town. You are correct in that there are plenty of shooting ranges in or near the New Paltz area. I doubt these students are interested in learning how to use a firearm but are merely seeking some LOVE and attention! (LOL) Future leaders of America!!
