According to organizer Jerry Thibodeau all party members and their families have been invited to the "Machine Gun Shoot" where, for $25, supporters of all ages can spend a day trying out automatic weapons. I wonder if a map to their local emergency room and a trailer trash cowboy hat purchased from Wal-Mart will be given to everyone as they enter the event. Because everyone needs a Uzi submachine gun for necessary tasks such as
- Self defense
- Protecting the first free public library in the untied states
- Participating in the ever so popular shoot up beer bottle boredom
- Hunting blue butterflies, lynxs, bald eagle and Atlantic salmon all of which are on the state's endangered species list.
That's what Uzi submachine guns are for, right?
"It's a fun day. It's a family day," said Jerry Thibodeau of the upcoming August 5 event. "It's quite exciting."
Now I'm not all in favor of the Democrats but I just gotta support local Democrat views when they say the event is 'in poor taste amid a spike in violent crime in Manchester and seeks to glorify the use of machine guns for political gain. '
Thibodeau said he invited all the Republican candidates in the 2008 presidential race to the event at Pelham Fish and Game Club outside of Manchester, the state's largest city, but he said they declined. New Hampshire is also is internationally famous for the New Hampshire primary, the first primary in the quadrennial American presidential election cycle. That must be the most nerve wacking event for the candidates… which I would think has nothing to do with the event itself considering that buying a gun in New Hampshire, whose official motto is "Live Free or Die," is relatively easy.
New Hampshire does not require buyers to obtain a handgun license or undergo safety training before buying a handgun but Jerry Thibodeau assured those who inquired that all shooters would undergo training.
I have never been so thoroughly glad and safe to be living in California until this moment… yes even with the knowledge that the major of gun sales is illegal.
To all New Hampshire residents: California is FULL try Utah
