Q:

would you buy a gun from someone that’s been to jail?

Just curious what you guys think?

I have beef with a admin named SNIPER that runs the CAF forum (canadian airgun forum) and i feel that it’s time to expose him.

I’m an air gun enthusiast and want to see air gun communities grow bigger in Canada. Unlike the US we don’t get all the fun stuff, and our governments are always trying to ban firearms etc. Take the h1n1 flu crap for example, most people live in fear and aren’t educated enough to make wise decisions.

You dont need a record to be a criminal.
Bet most of us have done something in the past that could,ve put us behind bars for a spell.

Yes I would… It is legal in Texas..

Hey Joe; where ya gonna go with that gun in your hand?

Oh, to the range? Never mind then.

Yeah… it sounds more like u totally ignored him and then when you found out that you upset him with your behavior you came here slagging him off and making threats to call the police on him….

FF said it best when he said you should of went up to the guy you had the beef with when you saw him. Either polite like or quietly asked him to step aside to talk or kick the shit out of him. Your a ninja black belt bad mofo aren’t you?

Lol…I tried the polite approach a few times.

really Joe?

Yep! that is what he should have done either talked it over or took it outside but going to another forum and getting everyone riled up isn’t the answer even if they are stealing your identity what do you want us to do.

You said the administrators fired your rifles? well maybe they didn’t know that you hadn’t paid since the firing would take place at the range and then maybe they got wind of your not paying.

I would have paid the $5 just for peace of mind and it keeps events alive with positive cash flow.

It reminds me of pool players that drink water and try to practice on the tables for free when nobody is looking and then they leave the poolhall to eat (when the poolhall serves food) and then wonder why the poolhall had to close down it happens all the time with no money coming in.

What’s so messed up is that I let the organizer shoot my guns and he didn’t say anything about not paying or signing a waiver. That’s why I assumed it wasn’t an issue.

Joe you are sounding like a kid who snuck into the theater and shared popcorn with usher.

Why did you not ask about paying while he was shooting your gun? You “assumed” therefore you were thinking about it.

It appears you thought you were getting away with something and when it caught up with you the excuses began to flow.

You got busted SUCK IT UP…..APOLOGIZE AND MAKE IT GOOD. Donate something to the CAF to raffle off to show you are sorry and have them donate it to the next gathering.

When I arrived at the show it was almost over. I walked around and asked a few people where it is that I pay for my entrance, and most of them said that it doesn’t matter anymore because the show is almost over. So I walked over to the range with my gf and started chating with other members who were already plinking away.

“Most” of the people you asked said you didnt need to bother, so that means some of them at the very least suggested you pay and more than likely where to go to pay – You choose to ignore them and then ignore the organizer’s and go right to the range.

Even if all of the people you asked said no need to pay, they were not entitled to waive payment – thats up to the organizer.

You keep saying it is “Only $5″… then why the heck didnt you just pay, and while your paying ask about anything else needed such as a waiver/special rules. The organizer isnt pissed about the $5, he’s pissed about the principal of the act.

Now your going on about US Politics, which have no relevance AT ALL….

Best advertisement for people to not to drink that product you shill !!

Back when I was shooting Blackpowder and helping run an event people knew enough to search out the organizers and we were easy to find anytime of day. They would ask what they could shoot and where to setup
very simple system. EVERYone signed a waiver even spectators as they were at a sanctioned/organized event.

My point is Joe, you need to take personal responsibility for your actions and clean up your act. You were aware that event organizers were watching you but avoided them anyways. Poor behavior on your part.

Joe, your post’s title is very misleading because it’s actually all about your personal issues with another forum. But, I’m going to give you my 2 cents. When someone did something wrong and went to jail, that person has paid his (assuming it’s a he) dues and he is still entitled to making a living when he comes out. It’s what he does when he is out that matters. We all commit “crime” perhaps everyday. Don’t believe me? Just check your speedometer next time you are driving.

Another thing, when you are doing multi-level marketing, you don’t have friends. Well, except may be your gf.

If you want to fight about my business doing multi level marketing then your just another victim. I can understand how some people had bad experiences with friends trying to sell them on Amway etc, but that doesn’t mean all MLM companies are bad.

I don’t actively work at multi level marketing because I sell tahitian noni juice. I believe in the product since it helps me in my career. The things I learned from MLM helped me to develope my own style I call Multi Level Moves which focuses on body, mind and spirit.

Joe, perhaps you should reconsider the effectiveness of that product.
It ain’t working for your mind or spirit that I can tell. If it was working you would have avoided the conflict because you would know how to conduct yourself in that situation.
Either you are taking the wrong stuff or not in the right dosage!

I will keep that in mind next time I goto a range like that.

$5 isn’t a whole lot of money and I’m not a cheap guy when it comes to these types of events.

quote NA:

Joe,

Maybe ( because you arrived late) as a show of good faith you should have talked to the organizers of the event (Admin), and signed the waiver to allow you to use the range???

This is the case with most ranges and THEIR policies, they are always in need of funds as most are member driven, and you ALWAYS have to sign a waiver at some point, whether you are a member of the club or especially as a guest.

Just my 2cents,

NA

simple courtesy and protocol everywhere

well said
