watched FX's "30 Days" hosted by Morgan Spurlock

I watched part, and was surprised. I expected Spurlock to do a Michael Moore. He didn't.

At one point early on the anti-gun babe was persuaded to fire a shotgun. At the retort she dropped the muzzle to the ground and broke into uncontrollable sobbing.

Loosely reminded me of something from years ago. I was at a 2nd Amendment conference. It was covered by a chickie from MSNBC(?). She was intent on filming what and how everybody was carrying, was disappointed that no one would cooperate. Anyway we fell into a conversation. She was from NY, had hardly ever seen, let alone fired a weapon. After the conference she happily agreed to let some of the guys take her to a local range and get some experience. No idea how that turned out.

Also used to attend Washington Arms Collectors monthly shows; always hundreds of tables and thousand upon thousands of attendees. Almost without exception these were the types that make me comfortable with carry laws.

A local reporterette once charged through the gate, cameraman in tow, to expose this den of evil. Both were quickly and firmly escorted out. She was do agitated I doubt she noticed a couple hundred laughing at her. And for a nominal admission she could have had free wandering privileges, though sans camera.

Hoping the beneficial uses by the good guys will start to attract more media attention. It'll be a long, hard slog at best.
