I heard many of them but at the top of the list a Dem California Politician held up an AR15 to the television cameras and said it can fire 30 bullets in one second. The sad part people will believe this kind of nonsense

A friend of mines girlfriend brought her beautiful cousin to an event we were at. I think she wanted her cousin to meet me. In an amazingly short period of time, the girl talked way more than she should of about pointless stuff and liberal crap. At one point she proudly stated "I don't believe in guns." I replied "And yet they still exist." and walked off and ignored her after that.

Grandpa trapper , I saw the same thing. I believe there was a woman who said we had heat seeking “incendiary “ bullets!! The real travesty is that nobody in the room either knew the truth or had the guts to call her out!!!!

Unloaded guns have shot people.... Ive told every hunters ed class Ive taught.. Unloaded guns never shot anyone, that's why we unload guns for safety, and for that matter no gun has ever shot anyone. The person holding it does that..

I will respectfully disagree with "unloaded guns don't kill people". Many accidents are with presumed to be unloaded firearms. The problem is, thinking it's unloaded, people think it's safe and forget the rules of gun safety.

Dumbest thing I can remember hearing? ... I'm going to switch it to fully semi automatic. Said by some high ranking military guy on live TV


Life sure is tough when you don't learn from the mistakes of others.

Not a particular saying just many people assume if you're knowledgeable on guns you must have been in the military. While the Truth is a very small amount of people in the military know very much about guns other than what they are given and even then outside snipers, special operations and country born people it's very limited.

Yep we are all human. Treat every gun like its loaded is good advice. My dad taught me and I taught my kids, when cleaning first check to be sure its unloaded. Then take it apart while pointing it in a safe direction. Lock the bolt back on semis or remove it on bolt guns. On semi's be aware of where its pointing while its disassembled for cleaning.
