C'mon now, was that necessary? No disrespect, I know I haven't been able to keep up to speed on the OCDO forums and there may be more behind this.

However, we must remember that we are all mortal. Which means we will all die one day. Therefore, just as procreation is vital to the continuation of our species so is the education and support of our young people regarding our firearms rights. Look, I know some things can seem so foolish that theyjust downright piss off the people that know better.I understand that carrying a firearm is very serious and we must train the young to not accept error. But we do not have to degrade them in the process.

This brings to mind the image of the old tired dog laying on the porch. The young puppy running around and pushing the ol' feller for some fun. The senior would prefer to focus his efforts on the bigger picture, but also knows the young pup must learn to handle himself as well. How often do you think the big dog would prefer to just bite the sprouts head off? But he doesn't. It isn't good for the survival of the species. And it isn't good for the survival of our rights either.

I think the "sprout" comment was a humorous acknowledgment of being called "bud" and was not meant as offensive or discriminatory of his age. :)

Good call.

C'mon, is all this necessary???

Lecture the officials of MOC that act inappropriately before you come here lecturing me.

Get your house in order before you try cleaning up mine.

Gentlemen,

I am the co-chair of this event and at the state level we have distributed over $140k to youth programs, last year. My club and the local 4H are putting in for some of these funds. If you want to personally see some of the money at work. Please bring a child any given Saturday morning or afternoon to 5059 Ellis Rd home of the Washtenaw Sportsman's Club. OR go look up Tri-County website. Either place puts on an exceptional program.

I won a nice Springfield XD 2 years ago.

We would appreciate any sort of help. Would you like dinner for $35? Would you like to do a sponsor package? Or do you have a service or product you would like to donate?
