The BatBlog has received a press release from local Libertarians about a firearm training session they are providing for local wimmens on Apr. 15. HT admits he is old school, and while he has advanced from his "barefoot and pregnant" mantra of his younger days he's not sure of the wisdom of arming all our wimmens. HT knows some bad ass, mean wimmens and the last thing they need are weapons especially ones with bullets. Wimmens are emotional, unpredictable, moody and mean enough and with them carrying .44 magnums mens will be disappearing everywhere. Mrs. HT won't be participating with these wimmen's gun training she will be home in her apron. ironing and cooking HT's supper and baking him a cherry pie....Just kidding my Libertarian friends....Seriously this sounds like a great event...and it's open to everyone not just wimmens...
In this day and age everyone needs to be aware of protecting oneself, woman especially, Anyone that isn't trained, familiar or comfortable with fire arms should have training to protect and familiarize themselves with how to safely handle and use a firearm. Anyone interested The BatBlog seriously recommends they attend this event Apr. 15... The BatBlog also is putting in a request for Goliath to provide some chickens for targets for this event...hitting moving chickens much tougher than a stationary target.
Here's the press release....
The Libertarian Parties of Southern Indiana will host an Intro to Basic Firearm Safety for women on April 15 beginning at 9 am at the Clark State Forest Gun Range.
"The LP supports the right to bear arms for self defense as well as recreational shooting and hunting. We also believe that with that right comes a responsibility to be safe and proficient with the use of your firearm," LP of Clark County Vice-Chair Russell Brookbank said.
Attendees should gather at the Forest Office. Loaner weapons will be available, but attendees need to bring their own ammunition. Loaners will include at .22, 9mm and .223. Ear plugs and safety glasses are required. Weapons brought must arrive unloaded.
As this is being held on the day federal income taxes are often due, participants are invited to bring copies of their 1040s to use as targets.
This event is free and open to the public. Donations will be accepted. For more information contact Shawn Bostock at 812-989-9381.

Sorry about that I inadvertently deleted a paragraph...It's at the Clark State Forestry gun range starting at 9:00 am .. I'll fix the post later..
ReplyDeleteThis event is NOT postponed. Hope to see you all at the forestry at 9 am. Thanks for posting this HT
ReplyDeleteAt the Clark County Forestry.
ReplyDeleteLibertarians hate government anything! They should go to a private range! Just sayin!
ReplyDeleteLibertarians don't hate government everything. That's anarchy. Let's get that straight. I agree though that our next event should be held on private property.

ReplyDeleteHow did the firearms training go?
It is a neat place to shoot at the Forestry,
plus you can have a picnic by one of the lakes after shooting.
Our taxes pay for the site, so it is fine to utilize it.
It is very nice of Kelley and Russell
to work on the program to teach firearms proficiency.
All in attendance had a great time. We will definitely be doing this again. I would like to see it become at least a quarterly event.
ReplyDeleteMissed this one, will have to try for the next.
ReplyDeleteArmed Libertarians is one thing and makes sense
ReplyDeletefor our democratic Republic.
However, armed, angry Liberals.... might be a bit dicey....
Hence the need for armed Libertarians, ;-)
