Hit Him Where It Hurts
Uptown Redneck replied to Uptown Redneck's topic in Gun and Hunting Laws and Politics Discussions
All his business interests have to be held in a blind trust taking control out of his hands until his term is up. Don't think selling to Jr would satisfy that requirement being he can easily influence Jr, or any other member of his family for that matter -
Hit Him Where It Hurts

I hope he does. That will open the Clown to possible impeachment -
Forecast calling for 5 degrees, you won't find me sitting outside

They have checked to make sure it is unloaded but they do not remove trigger lock. Any gun still in box from manufacturer taken from their backroom not checked
-
Of all the guns I have handled and brought at my local Dick's never once have they ever removed the gun lock, nor have they ever checked any gun I was in the process of buying to make sure it was unloaded.

Very simple. I would have looked at her and calmly said, "I hope that thing isn't loaded" and then hearing that it wasn't, as this post has stated, then I either would have watched "the show" or continued on with my business. Never would I have even thought of calling the police. As for someone holding a gun, or mistakenly pointing it in my direction, at the gun counter at Dick's it wouldn't concern me in the least

Nothing can be done about the Clown winning the election so now let's hit the fool where it matters, his business interests Feds to Trump: Sell your hotel before you breach lease. The G.S.A., which controls federal acquisition policy, has informed the president-elect that he must sell the Trump International Hotel he recently opened just blocks from the White House or be in breach of his lease with the government the moment he is sworn into office, senior House Democrats said Wednesday. In a letter to the G.S.A., four ranking Democrats on the committees or subcommittee that oversee federal contracting and ethics rules said the agency was clear. The problem is fairly straightforward. Mr. Trump will soon be in charge of the agency that issued the lease for the Old Post Office Building, which the president-elect transformed unto a luxury hotel. He will also appoint the head of the G.S.A. To avoid such an obvious conflict, the lease that Mr. Trump signed states: “No … elected official of the government of the United States … shall be admitted to any share or part of this lease, or to any benefit that may arise therefrom[.]” No word yet from Mr. Trump about how he will proceed. Not even the G.S.A.’s deputy commissioner of public building services has heard a peep in response.

I'm not disputing this. I'm only saying that at times, especially in sporting goods stores, that this does not happen. And knowing not only is the gun unloaded but also equipped with a trigger lock, there is no reason to get worked up over finding oneself. at the mistake of another, staring into the barrel of an unloaded gun.

For some guys here who talk so tough about defending themselves this thread shows their true fearfulness when they are confronted with a real life situation. According to the story you guys here are afraid of a woman with her children briefly having an unloaded gun in a sporting goods store. You guys who talk so tough about defending self, family and the country should be ashamed of yourselves for not being able to stand up to a woman with her kids in tow.

Calling the police in this situation could have only made it worse. Imagine only to happy to shoot first and ask question later cops storming a crowded store with guns drawn. Can you picture the absolute panic response of those in the store? Calling the cops could have turned a simple screaming act into one of complete chaos. And as for gun safety all the guns I ever had pointed at me in Dicks or any other store have ALL been unloaded with trigger locks on them. No threat there!

There really is nothing disturbing about this, just another irate customer providing Christmas Season Shopping entertainment, as the crowd of onlookers proves. As for the fact that this customer was briefly holding a gun I can not count the times I rounded a aisle in the Dick's where I go to find myself and at times when she's with me my daughter, staring into the barrel of a gun someone is looking/playing with. Do we find this disturbing, of course not, most times I/we completely ignore it, sometimes I'll even joke around with the "offending" customer. People, you're in a gun store dealing with the public, guns will be unsafely handled.

Proof of NRA Stupidity
Uptown Redneck replied to Uptown Redneck's topic in Gun and Hunting Laws and Politics Discussions
Finally, you post something I agree with. -
While I agree with adding visuals to a presentation to enhance its message I don't think that in today's world, with all that is easily seen online by today's youths as well as young adults, that such pictures today would have the same "shock" effort as they did when you took your safety class.
-
I would expect such behavior like that posted here at Gander Mountain lol. Their overall customer service sucks.
-
That it does. But in no why does irresponsibility ever justify shooting someone's pet, especially over a deer.
-
I wonder if liability concerns plays a role in not mandating shooting/gun handling proficiency.
