The club is conducting its own investigation into last month's incident, and the club's attorney, Steven H. Gibbs, declined to comment on the police report released Thursday because he had not received it yet.But Gibbs has challenged gun club opponents' assertions that bullets have strayed from the club at W302-N963 county Highway E at least four other times prior to the Brewhaus case.
Naturally you'd expect denial from the lawyer. But how about this comment by Steve Paluch?
Journal Sentinel's war on guns continues.
What's your opinion? Would it be right to inconvenience all the shooters who use the range because the occasional round goes astray? Where would they go then? It might be worse.
Please leave a comment.
Another "stray bullet" case, this one involving cops.
ReplyDeleteIt's a good thing we can trust the government to choose responsible people to use violence:

I wasn't planning to swing by this blog again (extremist lunacy can be contagious), but I wanted to see which of those stories you cherry-picked.
"Part of the problem is that over the years residential development has crowded the area surrounding the club."
ReplyDeleteThe solution is simple: It's time to un-develop the area.
But I still wonder, what kind of idiot builds down range of a gun range and complains about stray bullets? That's like building on the approach to JFK and complaining about the noise.
AzRed, per usual, provides his own special needs logic.
ReplyDeleteHe blames developers for building "down range" of the shooting club. IOW, Az Red believes a shooting club's property extends as far as its members can shoot in any direction.
Of course, for those of us who don't live in Narnia--we would suggest the shooting club has a responsibility and duty to ensure no rounds leave the shooting club's property.
But, on Narnia, Az Red believes gunloons have extra-special rights.

"Az Red believes a shooting club's property extends as far as its members can shoot in any direction."
ReplyDeleteNo. I believe an idiot would build down range of a gun range.
Downrange != any direction
Stop building straw men, jade. That only makes you as dim as those who build downrange of gun ranges.
I have to agree with Aztec Red here.
ReplyDeleteLet's undevelop all these developments.
"I'm sorry people, but you have to move back to the cities since you interfere with people's ability to shoot their guns."
Gun rights outrule property rights!
Gun rights outrule all other rights!
"Eff you all! We'll just force you to go back to the cities where you belong. You have no right to live where you want."

It's not a gun rights issue or a property rights issue. It's a common sense issue (real common sense, not Common Sense).
ReplyDeleteCommon sense dictates you don't build on the business end of a gun range. At least not for a good 5 miles or so.
So you can live wherever you want, but if you choose to live at the end of a gun range, you're choosing to live with catching bullets.
