"Reporter " fires AR and is terrified

[ja308]

As one who doesn't not own an AR, but has fired them before, I think this reporter is a pyscho who should be no where near any firearm.

"LIBERAL REPORTER DESCRIBES FIRING AN AR-15 ‘LIKE A METEOR HAD STUCK THE EARTH"...

"I’m not a gun guy. I haven’t handled a firearm since I squeezed off a few rounds from an old .22 rifle at summer camp more than 35 years ago.

Nor have I felt the impulse to own a gun for personal protection, whether due to privilege or delusion or both. I’ve also figured, rightly or wrongly, that owning a gun — statistically speaking — would tend to make my family’s home less safe, not more."..

Statistics bear out the fact one will probably never need a firearm for personal protection. Using the same logic, one will probably never need a seat belt or fire extinguisher either.

That said, when seconds count Police are only minutes away.

Well, he got one thing right:

His colleagues so he can write about his "personal experience" of the many faceted evils of the AR for his far left readers.
Photo op publicity stunt.

They should have let the guy shoot a Joe Biden recommended double barrel 12 guage shotgun with 3" magnum shells next. He'd beg to have the AR15 back.
