What’s Worse Than An Anti-Gun Liberal?
Simple: an anti-gun TV host masquerading as a gun rights supporter. Jim Darnell is a prime example of that.
Colorado – -(AmmoLand.com)- Mr. Darnell, the host of a syndicated outdoors television show “God’s Great Outdoors“ and author of a weekly outdoor column, has joined the ranks of noted quisling Jim Zumbo by calling the manufacture of AR-15 sporting rifles a “big mistake.”
Darnell’s column, which called the production of AR-15 style rifles a “big mistake,” was scrubbed from his website, shortly after it was published.
Darnell went on to claim that the production of AR-15 style rifles for hunting only encourages and angers the anti-gunners.
He concludes that bolt action rifles should be used for hunting because they’re safe and politically correct.
By conceding that the very possession of AR-15 style rifles is a mistake, Darnell gives the anti-gunners a foothold to justify banning other types of firearms.
Using his own argument, Mr. Darnell’s precious bolt action hunting rifles would be reclassified by the anti-gunners as high-powered sniper rifles, and therefore are a menace to society.
Darnell’s argument is as foolish and naive as it is dangerous. Gun rights activists must not give a single inch to the anti-gun liberals in Washington D.C. and in state capitals across the country.
If we give them an inch, they will take a yard, and pretty soon we’ve been pushed a mile.
