Wow. That reporter has issues beyond missing the link between his individual freedom of the pen and the individual right of people to keep and bear their own arms. In one of his trite pieces he says only the military and the police should have AR15's, but doesn't want anyone raised in the proper and safe use of such things.

Here, instead of evangelizing his (sick and twisted) point of view, he tells a little girl she can't grow up to be anything she wants to be. She doesn't have what it takes to do his job.

Shouldn't he be telling little girls, particularly the ones with more spine than he, they could grow up to be President?

C'mon. She was shooting a rifle of the same caliber as my pellet gun, albeit hers had a bit more steam than my Daisy. It's not like she was operating a poorly secured black ops contraband server conveying national secrets or anything.

Edited to add: that will teach me to read headlines and not follow links! As penance for poor research, I'll let my post stand. Y'all have a good chuckle on me, please. It's on the house.

But what if a weapons manufacturer could fashion a handgun that would fire a nuclear blast...

Well, why not debate the right to keep and bear death rays? The normal arguments against freedom get old and stale.

But until we can have death rays, I just realized I really want an AR15. I'll let my wife know I'll need to be comforted after I shoot it.

Kidding aside, his trivialization of PTSD was shameful.

Edited to add: When my wife was in the National Guard she had a lot of fun qualifying with the M60. I may have difficulty convincing her I need therapeutic home cooking after an afternoon at the range with a 223.
