MarkCO Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 (edited) PM's do little to educate those of us who tuned in for more info. +100. Educate all of us. Sorry, I will not go into specifics on a public forum...I am not doing their work for them... I'll probably get in trouble somewhere for this, but it was awful. A piece of sheet metal. She either does not understand ballistics or is intentionally misleading. FAIL! Anything else, ask me direct please.

shootingchef Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 the sheet metal was intentional as well as the caliber choices. they were trying to show the penetration capabilities ONLY, not any real balistics information.Keep it simple and stick to the message..

mikeg1005 Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 (edited) Thats was a damn good interview.. she did a damn good job explaining how people want to ban certain guns based on a misconception and fear mongering of others... the pistol grip picture was great as well as the comparison of what a "hunting" caliber does compared to the evil 223/5.56 of an "assualt rifle."

This lady is a educated shooter, not a uneducated politician, this is great stuff ! Mark you need to start a thread with this good stuff in it (maybe in your dealer part ? ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkCO Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 (edited) She gets the credit, I just found it (when she had about 200 views). BTW, I sent it to the NRA too. Edited January 26, 2013 by MarkCO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sudden Death Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 stuff like this is what we need to educate the nonshooting community, I will still give you a high five for the find anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeSLC Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 It appeared to me that Jessie was trying to stick to the facts about guns, their capabilities and types. As a court certified ballistics expert, she should have stuck to what she knows. Hopefully her good looks will keep people from evaluating the actual content, much of which was misleading and or wrong. In general, if you are going to make a claim that someone is misleading or wrong, the onus is on you to explain why. You are relying on others to take you at your word just because you claim to be a ballistics expert. Also, the science of ballistics appears to be based in classical mechanics so the idea that you know something that cannot be shared on a public forum seems unlikely. Then again, I know little about this shooter, ballistics, or even sheet metal… but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, not willing to educate the ignorant on a public forum. Actually, a little common sense is suficient to know why her demonstration was wrong, my 11 year old knew it was wrong the minute he saw it. I'll be in meetings next Friday with my elected officials arguing for the truth and common sense by the way...

toothguy Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 MarkCO, thanks for the PM and I agree with your points. One of the big reasons I liked the spot was when my wife saw Jessie she stopped what she was doing and was really receptive to what Jessie was doing more than what she was saying. She doesn't know much about calibers and ballistics but she was watching the way the guns effected (recoil) Jessie, another woman, as she demonstrated them. I guess what I'm saying is the words get forgotten but the visual is remembered. It seems like they always find the nut in the crowd, and it was refreshing to have someone capable deliver the message. I think having a capable women deliver the message shows empowerment, men think they run this country but women just let them believe that. I know from experience I own and run a practice where I am the only male, they run the practice and let me think I'm in charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkCO Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 I totally agree. I could not function without the women who keep me in line at work and at home. However, I know some women who shoot and hunt who had the same reaction I did to the video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
