Jr.'s Birthday Party at the local range?
« on: June 04, 2012, 11:00:10 PM »
SAH-WEET!     Now why didn't I think of that?  8)


A new gun range opening this summer in Lewisville, Texas, will have two rooms available for hosting children's birthday parties. Owner David Prince tells WFAA that the Eagle Gun Range will be available for children as young as eight years old.

"The age limit is eight years old. You have to be tall enough to get above the shooting table," Prince said. "They're not gonna be left unattended. Parents are gonna be one-on-one, or if there's not enough parents we'll have range safety officers here to show them how to do it safely."

Of course there are the naysayers, but the owner 'shoots' back a response..

My daughter would think that was the best birthday party ever.  Especially if there are some pink unicorns and rainbows to go along with the guns.

WOW!. I'm not sure if it made it on air, but this story was posted on Action 3 News FaceBook page.  The Comments are overwhelmingly positive!

The comments are overwhelmingly illiterate...

"just mre kids learning hw to shoot a gun you fust pray they dont grow up and do something else thats all we need"
-What is this random collection of words?

"But a birthday party for kids so they can all go around playing w loaded guns... Beginning to sound dangerous."
-Because that is what anyone is advocating.

For all the "No ways!"
-I suppose these are the people who believe abstinence only is effective sex ed. Preventing unplanned pregnancies by pretending teenagers don't have genitals has been ineffective, but teaching your kids about firearms by pretending they don't exist should work...
