I support an adequate facility to train only law enforcement. There are plenty of other ranges for civilians. If the current facility is inconvenient, that’s not a good reason to build new one. It’s painfully obvious Commissioner Wilson hasn’t done his homework about gun ranges, so if he wants to promote this idea he had better hit the books.
Art Hayhoe, Wesley Chapel
You really have to read his complete letter to the editor to understand… Gun range plan not well thought out – St. Petersburg Times.
Oh, Art… I think it is time to start a new category dedicated to the moronic writings of people like you. I will call them “The Hay Hoe Files”.
I’m not sure what books you have been hitting, but I think you may have hit them too hard with your head and given yourself some form of manually self-inflicted cognitive dysfunction.
Art, you have made your mark as one of the most completely illogical and idiotic anti-civil rights bigots I have seen in my life time. I’ve actually been in a room with the butcher of Bosnia, Ratko Mladic. He is the devil himself in our time. Mladic may be much more of a criminal, but I think you have less of a grasp than even he on what is a civil right. In the end, he knew that what he had done was wrong and knew to hide. You keep writing letters and trying to get on TV.
Let’s all watch Art try to say that the Second Amendment doesn’t apply to the states, seven months after the US Supreme Court said that it does in McDonald…
Art said that when carry occurs, crime goes up – this is a tired argument that has been proven completely wrong time and time again.
Art said that there is no evidence to support the idea that carry deters crime at all.
Well Art, you can tell that to the fellow who pulled knife on me demanding my money or he would “Cut me!”
I made a point to show the officer my carry permit and asked him to note in his report that this atack on a Floridian exercising their right to defend themselves did NOT result in bloodshed.
Criminals with knives typically do not wish to fight citizens with firearms.
