Does Jim Zumbo actually get it now?
I’m not 100% sure, but Xaviar seems to think so. His initial apology was like “Oh, you mean hunters really use these things? Oh well, I suppose that’s OK then.”
What everyone has been trying to pound into the head of this idiot was that it doesn’t matter if it’s suitable for hunting. It doesn’t matter it people target shoot with them. It doesn’t matter if the owner is a legitimate collector, or only owns one firearm, and it does not matter whatsoever what the crime rate with these “Evil Black Rifles” are, regardless, they are protected. People have an inalienable right to own them, they are essential “Liberty’s Teeth”.
Besides, if you look carefully, you’ll see that people do hunt, target shoot, and collect with these “Evil Black Rifles”, and notwithstanding their “evil blackness”, they are seldom used in crimes, and make great self-defense tools.
Oh and Zumbo, the vast majority of the people dumping on you don’t give a rat’s ass that you have hunted on seven continents, or that you have taken game in all fifty states, or you hunt 200 days a year. After you called us all terrorists for our choice in firearms, we don’t care if you fly a flag every day of the year. I can’t believe it took you the better part of a week to figure that out.

You gun nuts are hilarious!
“Liberty’s Teethâ€???!
You gotta be kidding me.

One me standing up to a corrupt government is a bad idea, thousands of people like me can make a statement without firing a single shot.
And who says it has to be our government? What about preserving order and protecting lives during a total breakdown of the government like in the aftermath of Katrina or Andrew?

And as we saw in New Orleans, the Gov’t will then just go door to door and confiscate your arms. And if you refuse, they’ll shoot you… and if you shoot them, you’ll be a wanted man.
Face it, we aren’t free, and having all the guns you want ain’t gonna change that fact.

Those responsible for the NOLA gun grabs have been sued repeatably and have been held in contempt of court. Don’t give up the fight so easily.
