I'm more curious at this point why this is so late coming to the attention of APS. It's been making the rounds of fora that have at best an extremely tenuous connection to the military and/or firearms.
To answer my own question in part - I did not cross-post to APS because I presumed that everyone would have heard about it from other areas of their life or their blog readings. Seeing as how the guy has not yet been cuffed and stuffed, there has been nothing tremendously newsworthy happening outside of the sheer volume of electrons being devoted to laughing at him.
So please accept my apologies for not having posted anything about this way back on 8/27. But pleeeeeeeease can I stay on the U.S.S. Enterprise long enough to see how it ends?
stay safe.
