Conservatives use uzis and M-16 rifles to raise cash.
“Tired of the usual chicken dinner” fundraisers, conservatives in Manchester, NH, are “planning to arm supporters next month with Uzis, M-16 rifles and other automatic weapons for a day of target practice.” Participants will pay “$25, plus fees for ammunition and parking,” to attend. “It’s a way of expressing yourself, I guess,” said organizer Jerry Thibodeau. “We all have a little testosterone in us, right?”

Did Cheney will not be invited.

July 24th, 2007 at 12:15 pm“We all have a little testosterone in us, right?â€
Very little, in some cases, as evinced by the endless need to use such silly macho props to reassure yourselves of your “basic manliness”.
July 24th, 2007 at 12:17 pm“We all have a little testosterone in us, right?”
Some of us more than others.
July 24th, 2007 at 12:17 pmSince Republicans never enlist and are unsafe hunting companions, this is the only place they can play with their guns.
I used to play with toy guns when I was about 8 years old. I grew out of it.
July 24th, 2007 at 12:20 pmI used to teach in ManchVegas. It’s sort of a sh*thole” Atleast I only had guns in my classroom twice that I know of and only one of my students was shot to death. The others just didn’t die. What is it with this whole gun thing? I have said it before and I will say it again. Pussies need guns to settle their scores. Tough guys get their hands dirty
July 24th, 2007 at 12:20 pmWhy don’t they take their guns and go to Iraq instead?
Of course they won’t. Because they are Chickenhawks(TM).
July 24th, 2007 at 12:22 pmThis must have been Cheney’s brainchild…
Some additional fees:
Bulls-eye targets attached to your “friends”: $5 each
July 24th, 2007 at 12:22 pmBulls-eye targets attached to your enemies/constituents: Free
GPS tags for hunting down members of the “liberal” media: $10 each (minimum 10 tags per order)
“Super-sized” (read: illegal) magazines/clips: $5 each
Armor-piercing rounds for kevlar-wearing deer/moose/jack-a-lopes: $10 per box
“We all have a little testosterone in us, right?â€
But not enough to satisfy a woman, it seems.
July 24th, 2007 at 12:23 pmTake those Uzis and M-16 to Iraq, macho-men.
July 24th, 2007 at 12:24 pm“We all have a little testosterone in us, right?” Perhaps Thibodeau is a great believer in shooting first and asking questions later. Apparently it is easier to rely on the testosterone kicking in than it is to engage the mind. As with so many superpatriots, one must never allow one’s head to get in the way of one’s emotions.
July 24th, 2007 at 12:24 pmDon’t worry, conservatives only shoot blanks. (I couldn’t resist.)
July 24th, 2007 at 12:26 pm“It’s a way of expressing yourself”
Hmmmm…. Automatic weapons fire is a first-amendment right?
July 24th, 2007 at 12:29 pmMy testosterone level is fine, thank you very much. Why is that necessarily connected to one’s desire to treat deadly weapons as toys? Might there be an inverse relationship?
July 24th, 2007 at 12:29 pmI hope they all signed waivers.
If they’re passing out automatic weapons, they’d better also hand out kevlar jackets, cause half these guys will show up drunk.
July 24th, 2007 at 12:32 pmIt’s a way of expressing yourself, I guess,†said organizer Jerry Thibodeau. “We all have a little testosterone in us, right?
True. And some of us choose to release that “little testosterone build up” by making wild, passionate, animal-like love to our spouses or partners, instead of “mock” killing things in an attempt to overcompensate for some sort of “short” coming.
But hey, that’s just me!
July 24th, 2007 at 12:33 pmcause half these guys will show up drunk.

July 24th, 2007 at 12:34 pm“We all have a little testosterone in us, right?â€
Does this include their women? Or are they not welcome at the fundraisers except to provide refreshments?

Appropriate levels of testosterone are crucial to the maintanence of a strong sexual drive in females. The lower levels they possess explain the decrease in female body hair as well as other aspects of human sexual dimorphism
July 24th, 2007 at 12:40 pmoh, by the way, nutjobs, watch out for those M-16s.
July 24th, 2007 at 12:40 pmThey pull up and to the right when fired on full automatic.
The idiot next to you on your left may wig out and spray your ass full of lead.
“We all have a little testosterone in us, right?â€
actually, no, that’s why you and your fellow repukes are so attracted to uzis and m16s.
and as long as the target is balsa wood, of course…
July 24th, 2007 at 12:40 pmUh oh, its a gun. You lib sissies better run before that gun gets up off the table and blows a hole in your chest. Remember your liberal bylaw: guns are bad and scary and need to be taken away.
Ill take an outing at the range over watching transgender interpretive dancing that occurs at the libber parties.
July 24th, 2007 at 12:40 pmAre all of you denying that is might be fun to shoot an uzi or automatic weapon at a target? Do all of you not enjoy movies with explosions. If they aren’t shooting people or animals with the automatics, what’s the big deal?
July 24th, 2007 at 12:41 pmactually, no, that’s why you and your fellow repukes are so attracted to uzis and m16s.
Or shotguns, ala John “Hey, Im a hunter too..how do you fire this thing” Kerry.
July 24th, 2007 at 12:43 pmThis sounds awesome. I would like the GOP to create a fundraiser that includes hunting. My father and I hunt game (deer/turkey) after Oct. 15 (Indiana). We would be raising money for a great cause and having fun.

No they aren’t they just have an extremely limited use and need and should be regulated strongly. As to that party you heard about since I doubt you were there, it was way more fun then the one with the hillbilly whiteboys, their little dicks, and their big guns

July 24th, 2007 at 12:46 pmElliot, its a big deal for them because ANYTHING that a conservative does needs to be excoriated and ridiculed. It doesnt matter that people from both sides of the aisle enjoy shooting firearms, in this case the posters here just want to use this as yet another excuse to claim superiority.

How about, when real guns have as stringent standards applied to them as toy guns do?
July 24th, 2007 at 12:56 pmI guess this is the one issue conservatives have left to lord it over liberals. Honestly, their position is supported by the constitution, and anybody who says firing assault weapons isn’t fun is either lying or has never tried it.

Easy they big guy, we’re just messing with you. Outside of law enforcement and military applications, firearms have an extremely limited value. Hunting comes to mind obviously but other than they are mostly unneeded. If somebody wants to whack away at some target i could give a crap but I will never be convinced that a man with a gun is more of a man with two fists. I think you protest too much as you did not hear me call for more regs. What I said was that their strong regulation was in the interest of the society. You folks get real testy about your guns but have little problem denying others their “freedoms”

Because my response was directed toward a disingenuous comment made about republicans.
So do you believe Romney to be “trueblue” when it comes to the issue of firearms mastery or was he exploiting it to curry favor with the right?

I don’t know anybody who’s gotten in a car accident. I’d wear a seatbelt, but it’s too much of a hassle. I’ll take my chances.
By the way, I do in fact know someone personally who’s car got jacked with his family inside. He had a concealed-carry, and he killed the carjacker. He did 5 years for it.

More like an anti-shit-quality gun platform.
As to gun ownership:
Lets keep the guns out of the hands of the nuts. Lets avoid guys like Cho getting ahold of lethal weapons.
Otherwise? You have a small penis, you want a gun to compensate, well get a proper license (As in, do a test to make sure you know what you are doing, sort of like driving) and there you go - no skin off of my nose.
July 24th, 2007 at 1:11 pmOK, admit it, this sounds like great fun. I would love to take part in a day of target practice with an m-16, I just don’t want that m-16 hitting the streets.

The design of my vehicle is such that it is extremely uncomfortable. Besides I think we might be talking apples and oranges. Again I myself could care less about people who get off on their guns, I just think they are largely disengenuous when they spew the “manliness” of gun ownership as Mr. Thibodeau suggests

Comment by Miller
Target practice is available every day. If this is cheaper than it would cost to do it on your own then it’s because the NRA is supplying the weapons and ammunition and is probably getting around rules to limit donations by the organization.

Veal does not come from deer, dingleberry, and deer that are over a year old do not weigh only 25 lbs.

Pay? Why not just join the Army and get to do that stuff for free?
I did, and it was a blast. And not just M-16s, but also SAWs, M-60s, M-203s, Mk.19s, LAWs, AT4s, 60mm and 81mm mortars, and 9 mils.
Of course, you run the risk of getting deployed to Iraq and/or Afghanistan, but that’s the kind of sacrifices that real Americans have to make, right?
July 24th, 2007 at 1:23 pmWhen field dressing your deer, did you check for TB? and for spongiform disease?

Haven’t you heard of veal. There is nothing wrong with shooting deer that are more than a year old.
Veal isn’t deer. Automatic FAIL
And besides the right/wrong aspect of veal, those animals are raised on farms for that purpose, not shot randomly in the wild. Another huge difference.
July 24th, 2007 at 1:24 pmPS isn’t it against the law in most states to shoot fawns?

Not in Indiana.
Comment by Daryll
Daryll you are proof positive that reading the bible and attending church will not provide a person with a moral compass. Obviously if you don’t find a passage in your book that tells you what is right and wrong you can’t figure it out for yourself. That’s what makes you bible thumpers such enormous hypocrites.
July 24th, 2007 at 1:24 pmThe ten commandments do not pertain to animal species. They were put on earth for clothing and nourishment.
Comment by Daryll
Not according to Judao-Christian teachings.
Animals weren’t put on earth to nourish humanity. When God first created man he made it a rule that mankind remain vegetarian. It was only after Noah that god relented and man was allowed to eat meat.
What kind of religious Christian are you that you don’t even know that?
July 24th, 2007 at 1:25 pmam I missing something here?
July 24th, 2007 at 1:25 pmDaryll, shoots a 25lb fawn, claims it be a year old lamb, then derides Michael Vick as a thug and “inhumane”?
Either someone has namejacked teeny tiny st.daryll, and is having fun
or I’m finally haven those flashbacks my parents warned me about!!!
Now you are making excuses.
YOU DON’T HANG THE HEAD OF A 25LBS DEER ON YOUR WALL. EVERYBODY THAT SAW IT WOULD FIRST BE HORRIFIED AND SECOND LAUGH THEIR A$$ES OFF AT YOU.
You are a lying sack of crap. You don’t even know what a real huntre does. You made shit up and are being trounced because of your made up stories.
Can’t republicans join any conversation without LYING about something?
July 24th, 2007 at 1:25 pmOf course not. Last year, a week before Thanksgiving, we shot a couple deer that weighed 25 lbs (their heads are hung up in my father’s office) and shot a fawn. Seriously, you guys should try it. It’s a good way to release life’s frustrations.
Comment by Daryll
You should be in the county lockup for fish & game violations.
25 pound deer ARE fawns, you moron. Hunters do not shoot fawns! You are despicable.
Comment by Zooey — July 24, 2007 @ 1:19 pm
Look Zooey, each state has their own fish and game violations. The adult deer were scarce during our hunt (Syracuse, IN). They would have died anyway because you have a lot who venture onto the highways.
July 24th, 2007 at 1:25 pmBut you still don’t hang the little babies heads on your wall. There isn’t one real hunter in the United States or the world for that matter that is proud of a 25lbs kill.

So you are killing them when they are scarce?
July 24th, 2007 at 1:27 pm@dbadass well, if you don’t wear a seatbelt than at least you are consistent with your logic. I tend to err on the side of caution.
And come on you idiots, the guy who said he shot 2 25 lb deer and a fawn was OBVIOUSLY a joke post. A 25 lb deer? Have you people ever seen a deer? That’s the weight of a malnourished beagle.

I don’t think Jesus is going to look favorable on the morally bankrupt people who don’t know right from wrong unless it is etched on stone tablets. And there were NO GUNS when the ten commandments were written, were there, Einstein?

There isn’t one person in any mid West state that would walk into that office and say “Wow, you killed those? Did you almost get killed by that thing? Boy, you are really an expert hunter.
Friggin’ lying sack of crap.

Wisconsin and Illinois are also swarming with deer. I don’t know anybody twisted enough to go hunting the babies though. And if it by any stretch of the imagination it can be considered sport, wouldn’t a bow and arrow be more appropriate and at least add some challenge to the “game”.

July 24th, 2007 at 1:42 pmOh and Daryll, the idea of “hunting” is to find the deer when they are scarce. Otherwise they would call it “catching” instead of hunting. And since turkeys are always hard to hunt, I guess we know why you kill baby deer instead.
July 24th, 2007 at 1:43 pmI just checked the Indiana regs, and our St D is right. They have an overpopulation problem, and an Antlerless bonus.
So they encourage hunters to kill baby deer.
Weenie Hoosiers!

Hunting has nothing to do with morals. It is just complete fun.
Especially if it’s the ‘ultimate’ prey. So why don’t you lend me your shotgun, and I’ll give you a 20 min head start.
July 24th, 2007 at 1:53 pmBecause of itty bitty teeny tiny st.daryll’s inconsistencies (25lb deer labeled as veal, calling a newborn fawn “game”, then stating they were scarce, as well as mounting said game on his father’s wall, er I mean his father’s friend’s wall), I believe the only hunting Daryll has ever done is standing naked with painted camafloge, in front of a mirror, as he grabs himself and proclaims…

July 24th, 2007 at 2:09 pm#17 Does this include their women?
Actually, it does. IIRC, the thyroid produces both testosterone and estrogen in small quantities, so everyone has a little of the other sex’s hormone.
We liberals need to get over our irrational gun fears. Whether you see the 2nd Amendment as an individual right justified by the need for a militia, or a collective one held by a citizen militia, a standard infantry battle rifle like the M-16 (or its civilian equivalent, the AR-15) is PRECISELY what the amendment was intended to protect.

Judas has been turned into a bad guy by Christians who can’t seem to figure out that he was doing God’s work. Jesus HAD to be tortured and killed so he could die for the worlds sins. How does Judas turning in Jesus (as was prophesied) make him somebody Jesus would kill?

Nothing, except that you’re on a “progressive blog”, the fund raiser is hosted by “conservatives”, and the head hancho stated that this form of fundraising was a fun way to express yourself due to a little testosterone.
July 24th, 2007 at 3:17 pmGeez, do I have to point out everything to you???
Shall I next point out the hypocrisy, or can you figure that out on your own?
sadsack wingnuts - they really do think violence is the answer to every problem - we should all watch out - they’ll try to kill enough people to keep R’s in power next fall
(someone should get a camera into that event cause you can be damn sure they’ll be shooting at targets covered with pics of hillary, barack and donkeys - would make a great sequel to the macaca video)
(btw - i’m all for second amendment rights, so don’t even go there)
July 24th, 2007 at 5:15 pmI hate Bush and Cheney as much as any of you, but this seems pretty stupid to get upset over.
There’s a gun range there that rents machine guns to visitors (of any political leaning) who want to fire off some rounds at a target. I expect you’re under supervision and watched pretty closely.
I’ve thought about driving up from here in Boston, but haven’t gotten around to it.
It’s not like it implies that you think anyone should be able to own such weapons, or that you’re an NRA freak. From a liberal perspective, limiting use of such weapons to the firearms equivalent of a Chucky Cheese seems like a good thing.
July 24th, 2007 at 6:50 pm“Conservatives use uzis and M-16 rifles to raise cash.”
