Well Hello there.

I noticed today that I have some people who have checked out my blog other than me. I'd like to say welcome and I'm sorry I'm a pretty boring person.

I'm going to make this post short because my shoulder is really sore from shooting trap today and I'm looking forward to a hot bath and some Ice.

The GCO Luncheon was really nice today, I met alot of people that I only knew online before. The Guest speaker Representative Timothy Bearden was a very affable guy and knowledgeable about what we as a 2nd Amendment group were looking for, and we got a lot of good info from him.

I also learned at the luncheon that asparagus is not as gross as I always seemed to think it was, it was a lot like eating grass actually.

I'm going to kinda cut back on the stuff about E-harmony for now because I was unaware of the sheer mass of people you can get. I'll save the posts on that stuff for when there is something more concrete to report there.

Trap shooting.
Today was the first time I had ever went Trap shooting. Seeing as I don't own a shotgun (yet) I "borrowed" the Huglu Shotgun I had bought my father back in 2004 ( Huglu model 104A) from Turkey. I did okay, the best I did was 15 out of 25 but thats the 4th round I had ever shot, I learned to stick my right elbow straight out to the side while shooting to reduce the amount of felt recoil, pulling my elbow in like I shoot my AR and it tightens up the muscles in the front of my shoulder, causing some very painful moments in the beginning. 100 rounds of 12 gauge #7 is no joke either.

I'm thinking about getting myself a Charles Daly Model 105 O/U now. I want a classic O/U with double triggers.

Well I did want to post some stuff yesterday but I didn't get a chance so I'll post the personal stuff here and the other stuff next.

Between yesterday and todays I've gotten a bit farther with a couple of people on E-Harmony. One of which is a very lovely young lady from Nashville, TN. Who lists her job as a writer, I wonder if she writes country music.

Tomorrow I am going to the GCO Summer Lunch and then to shoot some skeet. I'm going to borrow the Over/Under I brought my dad from Turkey. I'll post about how things went there tomorrow.

Georgia Packing

I recently joined Georgia Carry Org. I want to help protect our 2nd Amendment rights for myself and future generations(read Jack). Any infringement upon those rights needs to be stopped post haste.

I used to not really be all that interested in political stuff, I wasn't thrilled with the original AWB and I was glad to see it go, but I never gave much thought to that stuff. I really didn't care who was president as long as my taxes didn't go up. I vaguely disliked Clinton but I never voted for or against him. I was mostly into Autocross and Old cars, I was a regular visitor on ToyMods, and Australian forum for Toyota fans.

Theres a large distance from where I am and where I was and to be perfectly honest I started that journey on April 16, 2007. The Day of the incident I thought it was horrible, but if someone could have shot him when he started it would have been a non-starter. The next day someone on ToyMods had started a post about it in the Off Topic section. After expressing my opinion that Cho could have been stopped by one student or teacher with a firearm I was flamed and called a "Crazy like Cho" and a "Bloodthirsty Yank" by all the peace loving Aussies there. When I tried to disagree and explain my stand I was called a "troll". This after being a member there for over 3 years. So I stopped by GlockTalk to see if anyone there had any points I could bring up on Toymods, I was determined to try and show the Aussies the "light". But after reading around a bit on GT I realized two things,

1. I shouldn't be wasting my breath on people in some other country when their government has them so spoon fed on crap that they think a cowpie is dessert, and they like it this way.
2. Most Anti-gun people do not have positions based on fact, they have positions based solely on emotion, and they spread those views by playing to peoples emotions.

So for the last couple of months I have been reading news articles, and watching the politicians vying for attention, and solidifying my views in my own mind. I decided to start getting involved in trying to fight the barbarians that are slowly attempting to steal our god given rights, starting with the most important and, to them, dangerous. The God given right of every person to defend himself from violation of his inalienable rights.

My intention is to get more involved as I can, perhaps I can run for Congress or something. I couldn't do any worse than most of the people there now.
