If you have been following my blog, ArizonaShooting.com, or the Arizona Hometown section on AR15.com you’ll have seen a good number of people calling out some of the local gun industry people on their view of the legislation which allows Arizonans to carry concealed with out the need for a permit.
There has been a number of gun store employees and/or CCW instructors who have spoken out against the idea and have been using some of the same terminology that you hear from the freedom hating left. I’ve seen those of us who support the bill, be referred to as “whack jobs”, “nut cakes” and similar, by people who are supposed to be on our side!
Then you have this little gem:
“This means now I have to watch even closer the nutcakes who wave guns in the air and act like total testosterone-filled jackasses.”
That was directly taken out of an email from Barbara O’Connell, the Owner and General Manager of the Marksman Pistol Institute of Tucson. One of her employees, Jim Stover – the Chief Instructor; said:
“I think it’s the most stupid thing they could come up with.”
Talk station KFYI out of the Phoenix area has been bashing AZCDL.org members on the air, and from what I am understanding, is not allowing them to respond.
This is crazy. As an Arizonashooting.com member said:
YOU BELIEVE IN FREEDOM
OR YOU DONT!
There is no…”I have concerns about blah blah blah”
So now you folks have a choice to make. Stand with the Freedom loving members of the gun owners community, or stand against them and be ready for the consequences. We will stop patronizing your businesses. We will speak out against you. We will not recommend your store, product or services to anyone.
To you Freedom loving people in Tucson or anyone else that can make it, there is an organized protest to raise awareness of the Marksman’s flawed stance this coming Saturday the 17th, starting at Freedom Park on 29th street (across from the Marksman) at 9AM. If you have Facebook you can login and go to the event’s page to RSVP.

These people are pains in the ass, to be sure, but all they are doing is outing themselves. It’s highly unlikely that our current governor will veto this bill. In fact, it’s highly unlikely she will fail to actively sign it, given that one of the serious contenders in the Republican primary is the guy who runs Gunsite (http://www.buz4gov.com), and that he already has her running scared enough to start mudslinging (http://therealbuzmills.com)
