Ted isn't a LEO as far as I know...how can I do about becoming a sworn Law Enforcement Agent in Louisiana in order to be protected nationwide by H.R. 218?

 

[Ike]

There was a MTV Cribs episode with him where he pulled out a badge and said he was a deputy or reserve deputy.

 

[Manimal]

he's a Constable in Texas too...

 

[jmcrawf1]

Reserve Officer maybe??

 

[ReilleysMom32]

He's my hero.

Someone made a comment about my boss one time. He said that my boss "made Ted Nugent look like a Communist" because of how he keeps himself armed with the M4 aka "Katrina Cannon":

and the Taurus 99 9mm:

If the person who made that comment only knew about yall on here

...He's an *******. As evidenced by 'The Zumbo incident'

 

[artabr]

I think he holds a reserve commission with a sheriff department in Michigan. Plus the reserve constable commission in Texas.

What happened?

I saw Uncle Ted last year on his Love Grenade Tour. He rocked the place down. He played Kiss My Glock and Funk You dedicating them to his favorite liberals. The man is a showman and a class act.

What happened?

The only thing I know of being called the "Zumbo Effect" was when Jim Zumbo, who used to write a blog for Outdoor Life, wrote an article about his "surprise" that people are into AR's and AK's for hunting purposes and it was a few weeks before an AWB was proposed last year in Congress.

What happened?

He jumped all over people who didn't like Zumbo stabbing us in the back.
Flaming them etc.

(Apparently they are friends)

He also went nutz again after Zunbo made that half hearted 'I didn't know/I'm sorry I got cought' speech saying we should give Zumbo ANOTHER chance to stab us in the back.

THAT was the 'appoligy.'

I'll see if I can dredge up the original BS.

Edited to add: I believe that Taurus is a Walther...
That is unless Taurus is now putting the walther 'banner' on their slides... :^)

The original back stab

Assault Rifles For Hunters?
As I write this, I’m hunting coyotes in southeastern Wyoming with Eddie Stevenson, PR Manager for Remington Arms, Greg Dennison, who is senior research engineer for Remington, and several writers. We’re testing Remington’s brand new .17 cal Spitfire bullet on coyotes.
I must be living in a vacuum. The guides on our hunt tell me that the use of AR and AK rifles have a rapidly growing following among hunters, especially prairie dog hunters. I had no clue. Only once in my life have I ever seen anyone using one of these firearms.
I call them “assault” rifles, which may upset some people. Excuse me, maybe I’m a traditionalist, but I see no place for these weapons among our hunting fraternity. I’ll go so far as to call them “terrorist” rifles. They tell me that some companies are producing assault rifles that are “tackdrivers.”
Sorry, folks, in my humble opinion, these things have no place in hunting. We don’t need to be lumped into the group of people who terrorize the world with them, which is an obvious concern. I’ve always been comfortable with the statement that hunters don’t use assault rifles. We’ve always been proud of our “sporting firearms.”
This really has me concerned. As hunters, we don’t need the image of walking around the woods carrying one of these weapons. To most of the public, an assault rifle is a terrifying thing. Let’s divorce ourselves from them. I say game departments should ban them from the prairies and woods.

This excuse was after me and many other EBR shooters contacted the people who hire this @$$hole and expressed out outrage.

The first pathetic attempt of an excuse

I was wrong, BIG TIME
Someone once said that to err is human. I just erred, and made without question, the biggest blunder in my 42 years of writing hunting articles.
My blog inflamed legions of people I love most….. hunters and shooters. Obviously, when I wrote that blog, I activated my mouth before engaging my brain.
Let me explain the circumstances surrounding that blog. I was hunting coyotes, and after the hunt was over and being beat up by 60 mph winds all day, I was discussing hunting with one of the young guides. I was tired and exhausted, and I should have gone to bed early. When the guide told me that there was a “huge” following of hunters who use AR 15’s and similar weapons to hunt prairies dogs, I was amazed. At that point I wrote the blog, and never thought it through.
Now then, you might not believe what I have to say, but I hope you do. How is it that Zumbo, who has been hunting for more than 50 years, is totally ignorant about these types of guns. I don’t know. I shot one once at a target last year, and thought it was cool, but I never considered using one for hunting. I had absolutely no idea how vast the numbers of folks are who use them.
I never intended to be divisive, and I certainly believe in United we Stand, Divided we Fall. I’ve been an NRA member for 40 years, have attended 8 national NRA conventions in the last 10 years, and I’m an advisory board member for the United States Sportsmen’s Alliance which actively fights anti-hunters and animal rights groups for hunter’s rights.
What really bothers me are some of the unpatriotic comments leveled at me. I fly the flag 365 days a year in my front yard. Last year, through an essay contest, I hosted a soldier wounded in Iraq to a free hunt in Botswana. This year, through another essay contest, I’m taking two more soldiers on a free moose and elk hunt.
When I started blogging, I was told to write my thoughts, expressing my own opinion. The offensive blog I wrote was MY opinion, and no one else’s. None of the companies that I deal with share that opinion, nor were they aware of what I had written until this firestorm started.
Believe it or not, I’m your best friend if you’re a hunter or shooter, though it might not seem that way. I simply screwed up. And, to show that I’m sincere about this, I just talked to Ted Nugent, who everyone knows, and is a Board member of the NRA. Ted is extremely active with charities concerning our wounded military, and though he’s known as a bowhunter, Ted has no problem with AR 15’s and similar firearms. My sincerity stems from the fact that Ted and I are planning a hunt using AR 15’s. I intend to learn all I can about them, and again, I’m sorry for inserting my foot in my mouth.”

The 2nd amendment ain't about duck, deer or ANY OTHER type of hunting.

The Antigunners have used his statement SEVERAL times against us.

And like I said... Ted was ALL over us who were pissed.

 

[ReilleysMom32]

What do you mean by "all over us?"

Those who aren't in favor of keeping ARs and AKs?

 

[spanky]

no, he means those who were pissed at zumbo for making the statements

 

[ReilleysMom32]

no, he means those who were pissed at zumbo for making the statements

That's what I thought.

I mean, I'd be pretty upset if someone who was as well-known as Zumbo OPENLY supported an AWB and wrote that in my magazine. I personally think Outdoor Life did the right thing.

Unfortunately, the Antis don't know their heads from their asses anyways and will misconstrue anything you say
