Just got this email from friend Jack Burch and got permission to share it:
This sure beats what the antis recommend. You know, ignorance, avoidance and fear...
Good Morning David,Well, the "Authorized Journalists" may not report on it, but that's what us lowly bloggers are here for. This is vital work--if we don't have a next generation that's educated and involved, it'll be "Say good night, Gracie."
Had the best "vacation" last week. I had the honor of running registration and scoring for 600 kids at the 2012 Texas 4H State Games for shooting sports. Over 1000 kids shooting in 32+ events with firearms over a 6 day period. The really amazing part was not one person was worried about all these kids carrying a firearm. Not one accident. Not one injury. In the shotgun area alone over 250,000 targets were thrown over a 4 day period. If anyone wants to see the true face of gun owners they need to come to this event. I hear folks talk about how bad our youth are these days and have to think that my experience is tainted because I have the privilege of working with this group from all walks of life. Just once I would like the "media" to report on these kids.
Have a great day!!
