Planning to go to the gun range for my first time tomorrow

[Black_Rufus]

Black_Rufus, do you have your CHL?

What difference would it make?

 

[Black_Rufus]

Any easy first post in this thread would have been "hey, I got some free time and happy to go to the range with you", but you decided to take a different route and got results that matched.

You sir are very perceptive. You mean my post was reinforced. Agreed.

 

[ZX9RCAM]

What difference would it make?

Well, I figure you wouldn't feel a need to carry a gun, & that you would find it irresponsible, that's all...

 

[BIGPAPIGREG]

if it's soooooo bad, why are you here? Honest question. It seems as if you have had some bad experiences, I'm sure we all have. To lump it all together as "the whole State is screwed up" if perty bad. Not sure why ya moved here if you knew it was this terrible. Hope it gets better for you and your family. I love the great state of Texas............always will.


Nice thread hijack.

An easy response would have been along the lines of:

Sucks you don't like it here. Probably not the place for you to settle if you feel this way. Or maybe you'll meet someone who will change your views. Anyhow, thanks for at least having concern for our rights. Take care.

Have fun Shooting. Good luck to all.

I guess my 1st response wasn't worded to your liking......I'll attempt to do better next time.

Don't compliment YG.

Good question.

 

[TX69]

BR I sort of remember sharing some posts when you first arrived here in Texas. Black Rufus is your Lab and IIRC recall we had a good convo?

Not sure what has happened to you but you have had a bad experience with someone somewhere and are lashing out. The guys at TGT are a great bunch of people and your words are severely misplaced.

Go sleep it off.

No, I mean you created a hostile situation with an insulting and attempted to use the reasonable responses in an unreasonable way.

Where did you read that I think a chl is irresponsible? Please show. When I got here in enrolled in class within a few weeks and appreciate having it. But that is in no way related to this thread.

I sense some "tenseness" in this thread.

Try try again. Awesome. Thanks!

 

[Black_Rufus]

Don't compliment YG.

Huh?

Good question.

Why?

 

[Black_Rufus]

I sense some "tenseness" in this thread.

Me too, lol

 

[BIGPAPIGREG]

Thanks. I hope so too. Yeah it's frustrating being passionate about a cause and thoroughly enjoy a sport and having a appreciation for Firearms only to be talked to like an idiot by people you think you would be supportive.

It is understandable that you have a bad taste in your mouth about some folks in Texas, I feel sure that some are warranted. There are douche bags where ever you are, that is for sure and for certain. They are not the majority. There are lots of great folks here in Texas, just like there are in California, there are also assholes here..........just like California. There aint no getting away from that. The ol saying "you catch more bees with honey than vinegar" holds true. It all works out, ya just gotta be willing to let it.

You never said that, but why is that any better than carrying an "underfolder" in a vehicle, you called that person irresponsible, & trigger happy?

 

[Dawico]

Another guy says he drives around with his underfolder in his car. This is the most irresponsible thing I have heard.

Only one rifle in his car? That is pretty irresponsible.

 

[Vaquero]

Whisky gets treated like shit and mostly, doesnt complain.
This guy gets decent treatment and can't stand it.


Weird

 

[IAmSupernova]

I know the rules that off topic discussion isn't really mitigated and that cussing is supposed to be kept to a limit.


All I can say is "holy shit".

Sober for 15+ years.

Thanks, man. Much appreciated.
