God given right to bear arms.
If you thought Ted Nugent was an embarrassment to the human race, here is proof that you are right.

"As a hunter and registered gun nut, I will never apologize nor waste my time defending my God-given right to keep and bear arms."

snip

"But I like the term "assault weapons" better, if for no other reason than it causes Ted Kennedy and his anti-American, gun-grabbing cult-of-denial clan that much more grief. (If they are so hyper-dedicated to pretend that guns are bad, I wish to increase their unfounded anguish, thank you.)"

2. The Nuge was an ass in the 70's

and he's only become a bigger ass since then.

edited to add: I didn't know God wrote the Constitution, all these years I thought it was Madison, Franklin and company. I guess all our history books were wrong.

3. If he lived in a major east coast city
where crossfire from gangs is a problem, he might have a few second thoughts on the wisdom of allowing every felon, cretin, and nutcase to exercise that "god" given right (somehow, I don't see Jesus packing heat, do you?).

I was very antigun in Boston. I was sick of them.

Out west is a different story. This is bear, cougar and rattlesnake country and folks who live outside town need something to fire over a bear or big cat's head to discourage them from dining out of the garbage cans but be able to drop them if they charge*.

Nugent strikes me as just one more fool who has confused a gun with that most beloved part of his own anatomy. That alone should disqualify him.


*as a practical matter, few bears or big cats are killed out here except by animal control. Most are sensible enough to leave very quickly at the warning shot.

4. Rebuttal to Ted Nugent
Ted: "As a hunter and registered gun nut, I will never apologize nor waste my time defending my God-given right to keep and bear arms."

Me: "As a person armed only with wit and having better things to do, I will never apologize nor waste my time arguing with an idiot in a loincloth."

5. And oh...
By the end of a tour, were those goddamned loincloths foul. Remember: They were made out of deerskin, which does not lend itself to laundering.

One would need foundry cloves and tongs to handle them. Level IV biohazard gear was also recommended.
