Trashed shooting range under the gun

[Marlin]

Are we to assume that the FS will close the range for the day or at least half a day?

Hey, how come under my screen name it says "paintball shooter"????
That's insulting!

1. If they are involved, I'm sure it will be closed down for the day. We'll get to see how many yahoos pull up and leave when they find it closed.


2. I tried to make the first couple a little insulting, as a little incentive for more posts. [wink] You can do one of the following;
a} Post more
b} Do the CMP paperwork and get the CMP tag
c} Send Roger a little cash for operating expences and get a Contributer tag.

Had i wanted to be filled full of lead i wolda joined the marines. hehe

Not at all funny in any way, shape, or form.

Comin from a guy who grew up in an army family, we made fun of marines all the time... or as we'd call em Jarheads....

Trust me they make fun of army guys all the time.


We call em bullet catchers, they call us whimps it's just how it works


What you have to understand is that both make fun of eachother in good spirit. We may be mean to eachother, but it spurs competition and rivalry, which in tern makes for better soldiers. When the two best compete against eachother they get even better. In the end with all the harsh things the two services say to eachotehr, when a marine and a soldier is on the field fight bad guys, they will work very well together.

Get better, ColoradoPacker!

I'll be able to do morning cleanup on the 29th. I've also never been there before, so can I meet someone and follow them?

That or keep us motivated with your cane.... lol



Delphi... im not going to quote anything in particular, but i dont think you are seeing the big picture. This world is full of people who look at other people. when someone sees a person of a particular group, say, a firearm enthusiast... and the said enthusiast is readily emptying the 30 rnd mags from his ak47 at a bunch of garbage.... well put yourself in his shoes and you tell me what he is going to tell the first person when the subject is brought up. That person didnt know that shit wasnt yours, and now we have a stereotype of being a bunch of trigger happy slobs. Its true, that one bad apple ruins the bunch and im not saying you have to clean up after all the bad apples, but every good thing you do counts toward preserving our (your) rights. You can say you didnt bring that stuff out there, but if you shot at it, and it broke, you successfully created more than one peice of garbage that i am going to be cleaning up next weekend. So, thanks a bunch. In closing, and i know this probably sounds harsh, and i am just that way, but nothing im saying is meant to be horribly offensive, perhaps motivational at best. Perception plays a big part in the world we live in, and when we are a part of such a largely disliked group, the dislikers are always looking for excuses, and you plugging away at kegs, pc cases, and whatnot is just the ammunition they need. I do hope you learn some other angles and perhaps see my side of the debate here, and i hope to see you out there next weekend, right next to the rest of us.

Hey PhL0aTeR that is definatly a different way of looking at it... I can see where you come from and am sorry that i didnt before. And maybee some other time i can help clean up a range... maybee the woodland park one if it ever needs it or somthing. But this weekend is bad... i have to work... If somthin like this ever pops up let me know a good while in advance my boss needs at least a 2 week notice for days off.

So, yes i agree and can see where your coming from, i hate it when they lable us like that too. But i'm a college kid that needs money to pay for college, guns and other things And i cant afford to just tell my boss, sorry cant come today... gonna go clean a range. Next time somthin like this is schedualed i'll do my best to be there, I'll give ya a raincheck Just make sure ya let me know in advance hehe

Another piece of this is there are people who will always pick up their trash and those who may or may not and those who generally won't.
If a place is kept clean, and people are seen picking up after themselves, the others will be more likely to follow suit and pick up theirs too.

So, Do We have an "Official" meeting spot for this yet or, do I spend the day driveing around wondering where it is? [abused]
