Kim needs to straighten out her Beretta teammate. http://www.usatoday.com/story/sport...shooter-vincent-hancock-gun-control/78309682/
She probably just wants the chance to get them on the casting couch...

What specifically is the AG doing to Olympic shooters? Other than the long standing LTC/FID requirement for guns and ammo, I am not aware of anything her recent actions have done to interfere with the use or acquisition of any weapon used in Olympic events. Please fill me in on what I am missing.
Well big surprise, not, put USA today on the long list of lib propaganda rags.
she made a great point,
do these rags come for a statement from Olympic swimmers every time some kid drowns and make them defend their sport?

for one, by stigmatizing marksmanship in general and doing everything in her power to kill gun ownership and sales, new shooters are having no avenue to grow the sport.
eta: the arbitrary and capricious way licenses are handled in ma is a glaring example of a road block to new Olympic marksmen .

Good for her...this is a great example of how restrictions infringe on the rights of the law abiding.

Yes, but this is a far cry from Peruta's (stage legislator) stance in California "Olympians should move out of state".
The AG's action is despicable, but we need to make sure we can back our accusations up with fact when attacking her politically. It is hard to prove "hates Olympics" when MGL allows Olympic guns, and even has a separate "Olympic Roster" to allow the sale of Olympic handguns in the DPRM.
And don't forget, the Olympics does not back gun rights: http://www.vpc.org/press/press-release-archive/olympic-officials-blast-combat-shooting/. Furthermore, the head of the international sanctioning body for the Olympics (UIT) is on record as saying that Olympians should not participate in the sport of IPSC, and any UIT region that elects an IPSC member as it's regional rep to UIT will be deaffiliated.
"If there are people that should not be able to get these firearms, they shouldn’t be able to."
That's some brilliant thinking he's got right there.
