I won't bump heads with you Brian. And I certainly don't consider you an enemy. But, I've said it before and I'll say it again now. It shouldn't matter what people shoot at for targets as long as it's cleaned up afterwards. And isn't explosive or toxic to the environment somehow. How about those kits the pressurize 2-liter bottles to get a harmless 'Boom" when their shot? People get to feeling like children being talked down to with rules like not able to shoot colored water in milk jugs.
And hey! I hope the new house is as exciting and fun it should be for you three!
Thanks Mike. The new place is coming together and is a really great home for us to raise the little one.
As for shooting trash...
Ive heard this before and not just from you.
My reply is usually along these lines.
Saying it is ok to shoot trash as long as you pick it up is along the lines of saying cursing in front of a young child is ok as long as you also tell them it's not ok to say those words.
You know those kids are going to say those bad words.
My point being, setting a precedence of not giving the next person the visible example that shooting this stuff is ok.
For example, you never curse in front of your kids and always make example to say it's bad when someone else does in front of them. They learn it's not ok.
You never shoot trash in front of anyone and make known those that do are poor recreational shooters, it sets the precedence to those that are ignorant to it, that it is bad.
That or make the fines stricter.
It's up to the recreational shooter really.
Be better, or get more restrictions.
