You're gonna need a longer stick.

Great job leaving out the parts of my post that contradict your little soapbox rant.BigNate wrote: ↑December 7th, 2022, 3:48 pmIt is the same train of thought... "because an evil or stupid person can do something evil or stupid with it - no one should be able to have them..." Same logic...TheAccountant wrote: ↑December 7th, 2022, 10:34 am Cool story, bro. The leap from saying a tracer can start fires to magazine bans is comical.
So there you go again... because a stupid / irresponsible person exists - no one should be able to have them. You might want to live in a world where the gubbermunt protects "everyone" by telling everyone that they are not allowed to do things that if done wrong could hurt them. Sorry... I don't want to live in that sort of society - and candidly I'm disgusted to see how much of our population seems totally happy to jettison freedom in the name of the perception of safety. Hell - most of the places that I've shot for DECADES, without ever starting a single fire, are now posted as closed / no shooting on the grounds of fire risk. The moron do-gooder- Karen types have lobbied to have them shut down because they are afraid that someone stupid will start a fire (or they are afraid of guns in general).TheAccountant wrote: ↑December 7th, 2022, 10:34 am Plenty of people just like you didn’t recognize they were the morons that start fires until the fire started.
If you had said: "whatever you do - if you are going to shoot tracers out here, please recognize that an incendiary tracer will burn for quite a while after it is stopped - make sure you know where it will stop and that you aren't going to start a fire..." I'd have no issue with it - but you didn't - you assumed the worst. Maybe you should go lobby for closing of more public land to shooting - you know - bullets can spark.
Peace
