Sounds like the Discovery Channel caved in to political correctness.

Their reaction to the VA Tech shootings is exactly the wrong one, because they blame the wrong thing for what happened. The guns were not to blame, Cho was.

I have my CC down here in Texas and never leave the house without my Glock .45 or .40 in the small of my back. Better to have and not need it, then to need it and not have it to protect yourself from some drunken Cunuck at a hockey game!!! ha!

How about Mr. Canadian falls out of love with his family, his dog or whatever it is he is in love with? How can we fall out of love with such magnificent creations? I got to see the Guns of Beretta before the VT shootings and it was a good program. Shame on HI for chickening out. It wasn’t the existence of those guns that cost so many their lives, it was the lack of a few more.

You gotta love a woooman who can handle a .44 mag.

Both Pambo and Ner have worked out with an M1 at the tick farm, but not the .44 yet. I plan to take Ner shooting in the next few weeks and maybe we can try that. Might make for some good photo’s and facial expressions. The M1 did.

I don’t think you are being too cynical. There are more than enough irrational cowards out there like your first commenter, who see the gun as an instrument of evil, rather than an amoral tool to be harnessed by brave humans for good.
