Our Shooting Culture

Filed under: Uncategorized

We’re often told by the gunloons that firearms have been an integral part of the US of A–now and since its inception. The gunloons will tell us of their prowess in shooting and all things gun-related.

With such a deep, rich history of hunting and shooting, we should be sweeping up all the shooting medals at the Olympics.

But noooooooo…

To date, the US of A has a gold (Walton Eller (Men’s Double Trap)) and a bronze (Corey Cogdell (Women’s Trap)). Meanwhile, China–often cited by gunloons as having no firearms–has four gold, one silver, and two bronze medals.

Well, at least we’re keeping ahead of North Korea. Barely.

  1. One of the most idiotic rationalizations that I have ever read.

  2. Of course, the lickspittle bitch forgets Kim Rhode, who has at lease two medals, one of them gold, that I can remember off of the top of my head.

    GunFacts, JadeGold hasn’t any.

  3. To date. Reading is your friend.

    Still, would you like me compare US shooting medals to, say, China? The original point still holds.

    As of 1730 on 18 Aug, the US has 2 Gold, 2 Silver, 2 Bronze in shooting events. China: 5 Gold, 2 Silver, 2 Bronze.
