I did not watch the whole episode, but skipped over to it now and then. I got the impression that it was anti-firearm right off. The thing that frustrates me about people who are anti-fiream is most of the time they argue about firearms and firearm owners being sinister deals mainly with urban inner-city crime.
I think they tend to forget that there are places in the World still where Human Beings are not at the top of the food chain. I wish they could see it from that angle. When I lived in Alaska, I only owned one Lee-Enfield Rifle and a old single shot .22, I did own a larger calibre handgun then. When I would go backpacking, I did not take my Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I* with me. By the grace of God I never had a close encounter with a Brown Bear, or any other large carnivour. At night my thoughts would be on the .303" Rifle hanging on the wall back in my cabin...LOL. Laying in the tent at night, I got to know the "Bloke up Topside" a lot better...LOL. I'm sure I could have slept better if I had a capable firearm with me...LOL.
When my Girlfriend and I go back to Alaska, I will have a capable firearm(s) with me this time...LOL.
I'd like to see people who are anti-firearm to see the issue from that angle.
One last thing, just an opinion here. Most of the people (and me also) I know who are "into firearms" tend to be very law-abiding people who enjoy owning/shooting firearms and intend to keep it that way. I hope that made sense.
Thanks
